You should be able to try/catch that. However, you're not getting that 550 error in the typical "Error occurred while processing request" are you? That's just in the mail logs, right? You can't trap for that with cfmail because cfmail isn't actually erroring. What you want to do is verify every email address you send to cfmail using the built-in isValid() function or a cflib function like isValidEmail(). If you're using a query, then you'll have to make sure the email addresses in the database are formatted properly. But like I said you ought to be able to try/catch for these anyway.
