553 Requested action not taken: mailbox name not allowed or chunk too large

I am reconfiguring a network. We are using MS Exchange 2003 on a 2000 server. I have POP3 and SMTP services running but when remote users who connect via POP3 try to send any email to an outside email address they get:

553 Requested action not taken: mailbox name not allowed or chunk too large

They can send mail to internal users i.e. other users in the global address list.

It's a few different users so I ruled out the Apostrophes issue mentioned in:

The company has a WatchGuard firewall and won't trade up anytime soon so that may be the problem I just need a little advice on what settings need to be changed.

POP3 is enable for incoming and outgoing. SMTP is enabled for incoming and outgoing. Both are NATed to the Exchange box.

Anybody else run into this and have any sort of solution?

thanks
