How to email the UK with a @live.co.uk extension

I am trying to respond to an email I received to my hotmail.com account but it keeps getting rejected with the following reply:

"This is an automatically generated Delivery Status Notification. Delivery to the following recipients failed. som.cl@live.co.uk"

I assume it has something to do with sending an email from the U.S. to the U.K. Any help on how to respond to this email I was sent would be GREATLy appreciated.

Thank you in advance!

The delivery mail status is just that short "failed status" that I mentioned above. I tried sending from gmail account with the same exact "failed" message. I also tried using another computer with same result. Is there a possibly a different .extension I should try instead of @live.co.uk if I'm sending from the US? You're help is very much appreciated!

I replied the same day I received the email. I'm thinking the email account must still exist and since I was sent the email originally it must have put my email in its known addresses. Its important I respond since its an old friend overseas and I don't have any other way of contacting them. Is it possible if I used a different .extension like Hotmail.co.uk it would work or anything that has the same server as @live.co.uk? Thank you very much for working on this!
