When I create a custom Recipient (Internet Email) in the GAL, and then try to send mail to that recipient - someonespecific@somewherespecific.com - Xchange 5.5 SP3 immediately sends an ndr back saying 'Recipient can't be found'
This happens with only 2 Inet email addresses. could it be when I was playing 'HELO's' when battling with Relaying??? - this is getting absurd. Other Inet email addresses will send.
Any help greatly appreciated.....

enable logging on your exchange server.

Also does it send, if you type the address in outlook instead of looking it up in the GAL.

When I have issues with specific domains that I know are valid. I setup those domains on my DNS server and include the proper MX records. That way my exchange server knows exactly where to send it and it can't miss.

Yes, It sends to the email address from typing it in in outlook but NOT from the GAL!

What does this mean?

Thank you
