When the "Invalid email address" error is shown, it means that an inbox for that account was never set up through Google Apps @ Illinois.
You can create a Google Apps account and Gmail mailbox by turning them on at your Cloud Dashboard.
Any changes will take a few hours to update in regards to receiving email.
