Hi pianomanben,

your Outlook version?
your Windows version?

Your name would be very, very kind.

Tip: Do not use more words as now. It could be, that you will get a helpfull
answer. ;-)

"How do I know if I sent an email to a non-existing email address?"

Normaly you should get an error message "unknown recipient" or "unknown
host" or "delivery failed".

You'll usually get a return email saying it was undeliverable.
Add your own delivery receipt request adds a notification from Outlook if it
gets through.

I am no longer receiving any notification when mail is sent to a non-existing
email address. Any suggestions to turn this back on?

This is a feature of the mail system and not outlook.
It may have been turned off by the people that administer your mail
server due to too many fake bounces.
