 * We improved the error reporting, there should now be more information with each
   error. Can you please regenerate the error and copy the full error for us if 
   you still need help with this?
 * Thanks!

 * In case this is important, I use Profile Builder Pro to let users sign up and
   generate a WordPress profile with a custom user role (same rights as subscriber).

 * I’m having the exact same issue – approx 6 email addresses in a list of 200+ 
   can’t be synced. Same error as well.

 * Hey,
 * Do the email addresses for those users look real or are they perhaps fake addresses?
 * Either way, we’re pushing out an update shortly in which you should be seeing
   a more detailed error message. Sorry for the delay, but let me know if the issue
   persists after our next update please.
