Myself, and one other person I know of, get a Permanent Error reply when we reply to an an email that contains "Dave Johnson <davxxxn44@yahoo.com>"as a cc in the original email to which we reply. The message says "

Delivery to the following recipients failed permanently:

* cynxxx919@gmail.com

Reason: Permanent Error

As you can see, the faulty email address is not contained in the original incoming email nor the outgoing email reply. The email in my address book, and email shown in the original sender's address book is as expected. This is a constantly/consistently repeating error involving emails only when Dave Johnson is a recipient. No one involved in any of these emails has any recollection or knowledge of any cynthialynne.

My concern is, "How could this occur?" and, of course "It appears possible to unknowingly send emails to unknown address, which if 'good', we'd have no awareness of - no even if we monitored our email headers." Such a security breach seems unlikely, but otherwise we have no understanding of what is happening nor how to prevent it, and would like advice on the matter.

This from the email header that produced the permanent error message:
