You could have simply deleted or fixed the buggy message in the outbox. 
Deleting the outbox file itself wasn't necessary.

In the development version a message box clearly explains that sending 
messages won't work until the buggy message is corrected or removed 
from the outbox.

Ingo

To: submit@bugs.kde.org
Subject: Invalid BCC Field SMTP Response 550
From: breton.saunders@ntlworld.com

Package:           kmail
Version:           1.2 (using KDE 2.1.1 )
Severity:          normal
Installed from:    RedHat RPMs
Compiler:          gcc 2.96
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Red Hat 7.1 standard install

Problem: I entered an incorrect address into the bcc field of an e-mail.  The e-mail \
was bounced back by a SMTP server response code of 550 (some of the addressees are \
undeliverable).  I could no longer send any e-mails at all; regardless if I created a \
new message, kmail insisted on sending e-mails with the incorrect address in the bcc \
field, even if the bcc field was empty!!!

Solution:  I deleted the outbox file.  When kmail restarted, it created a new outbox \
folder, and I could send e-mails again.

Repeatability: every time.  I can do exactly this:
enter an e-mail.
Fill in any subject, any text, to address: "breton.saunders@ntlworld.com"
bcc field: "bms20@ntlworld.com" <note that this is an invalid address>. 

Kaboom.

I can e-mail you the outbox folder if you want.
