It has been a while since I posted, but I came across a nuisance error this morning: "This is the home email address of this recipient. It cannot be removed". The address that could not be removed was not the primary address and what's more this was a mailbox, not a contact, so I could not just delete it without disrupting the user. I needed to remove the rogue address as it had been created in error and was a domain that was not managed by Exchange. Anyway, I launched ADSIEdit.msc, found the attribute TargetAddress (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa487600(EXCHG.65).aspx) and cleared it. I could then go back to ADUC and remove the rogue address. After about 20 minutes mail started to be delivered to the mailbox once again.

Just came across the same problem but I found you could fix it as follows :-
-User or contact properties
-Exchange General tab
-click Modify next to the E-mail field
The address had been entered incorrectly, once modified the erroneous one disappeared from the Email Addresses list
cheers
