messageToForward.Forward error

I have a Windows Service that cycles through Email and inserts parsed data in a SQL Server.  It works!  I'm trying to forward Emails that need additional attention to an administrator.  Can anyone tell me why I'm getting the below error?  I get it at messageToForward.Forward(messageBodyPrefix, address);.

Thanks

EmailMessage msg = EmailMessage.Bind(service, item.Id, PropSet);

ForwardMessage(msg,"ATTENTION NEEDED","Admin");

            distribution = extractorAdminEmailAddress;
            break;

            distribution = extractorSupportEmailAddress;
            break;
    }                    
    string messageBodyPrefix = "Automatic Forward by Telecomm Extractor.  [DO NOT REPLY]";
    EmailAddress[] addresses = new EmailAddress[1];
    addresses[0] = new EmailAddress(distribution);
    messageToForward.Subject = "[" + subject + "] " + messageToForward.Subject;

    messageToForward.Forward(messageBodyPrefix, address);
