The rest of the email address is the same. I even called the sender (this is a legitimate organization) to let them know and we were both surprised that in their system the email address was entered correctly. Yet I am getting his emails.

It is not. But somehow my Outlook gets from Gmail emails addressed to him (not me). I get my emails too though (I think <g>).
