Why can't some users receive emails from Sandbox?

I cannot figure out why my gmail and hotmail test users are not receiving emails from my sandbox.  I can receive emails to my system administrator account.  I checked the spam filters on the gmail account and even added @salesforce.mil to the safe senders list.

Are there settings that will block and email from arriving to gmail?  I checked the email log and it does show an email was sent, but it has not been received.

On a side note- my gmail account can receive salesforce emails from other salesforce sites.  

Any ideas?

@Mike

Still searching for an answer....

- .invalid was not the reason
-I thought I verified the email when I created the account months ago (and have been using it).  I went back and found the verification email, his verify and logged in again.  Still not getting emails from sandbox on this account though.
-I can get emails to my .mil email account account

-I was given this sandbox, which was a clone from the military (.mil).  I am wondering if there is some setting that blocks gmail or other non .mil accounts.
