PhpMailer throwing Fatal Exceptions

I have a mailer script that is looping, processing outgoing emails from my server. Occasionally it hangs up with the following error.

PHP Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'phpmailerException' with message 'SMTP Error: Data not accepted.'

This causes my script to die before the reminder of the messages can complete.

Here is the code that kicks off the email.

$message = new \PHPMailer(true);
$message -> IsSMTP();
try
{
    $message -> SMTPAuth = true;
    $message -> Host = Config::HOST;
    $message -> Port = Config::PORT;
    $message -> Username = $account;
    $message -> Password = Config::PASS;
    $message -> AddReplyTo($account, Config::NAME);
    $message -> SetFrom($account, Config::NAME);
    $message -> AddAddress($recipient[0], $recipient[1]." ".$recipient[2]);
    $message -> Subject = $recipient,$this->subject;
    $message -> AltBody = 'Please enable HTML viewing in order to view this message. Thank you.';
    $message -> MsgHTML($recipient,$this->body);
    if($attachment !== false)
        $message->AddAttachment($attachment);
    $message -> Send();
}
catch (phpmailerException $e)
{
    return $error -> errorMessage();
}
catch (Exception $e)
{
    return $error -> getMessage();
}

I don't seem to be catching the exception. How can I recover from this gracefully?

EDIT

It was a namespace issue as indicated below.

Most likely a namespace error - the sneakiest of errors.

catch (\phpmailerException $e)
