The directory can be used to send to add adults in a ward, but I don't see how to do that at the stake level. There are different tools used to send emails. We need to know which one because each has it's own quirks. And different individuals are responsible for different tools.

It's possible that one of those emails is forwarded - perhaps incorrectly. It's also possible that a particular email doesn't exist, but the receiving email system forwarded to another that was similar. And in some cases different domains resolve to the same email system. For example, "
xyz@aol.com" and "
xyz@cs.com" end up in the same place. So it's possible that person's email is nowhere in any church system.
Ultimately, to track it down, it would be helpful to know the email address that got it and the email headers from the email that person received. That may allow us to know what email address caused it to end up in their email box.

It's where membership records are sent when the member can no longer be located. It's not really in your stake, but it's also not really in a new stake either. It can be a limbo state.
