Unable to send email to group. Getting an error message about incorrect format of email address.

I tried to send an email to a group.  I got an error message in red:  "Please use the following format for email addresses: . . ." but I know of no way to look at my group list and see which email is spelled wrong, missing a letter or has any other problem. I'm really frustrated since this is an important email.

Original title: Blocked from sending a group email, but can't fix it.

    Thanks for the note,

    I'm not sure the response I sent went to the private message area or not -- there's no link that I could find to go to that area, or sign up, or see if I'm signed up . . .

    Hi Edmund,

    Thank you for responding.

    You say above:

    Thank you for your response. In order to view the response, you need to click the notification that states “You have a private reply to this message. Click here to read it on our secure private messages section."

    Where do I find that notification so I can click on it?  I've spent ten minutes looking for it and don't see it anywhere, and nothing else I tried got me to your private message.

    I'd appreciate your help.

    nonprofitGlen
