I have been reading previous posts on this topic but have not found my

When I ENcrypt on BoxA using -r UserName, decryption on BoxB errors with :
"decryption failed: secret key not available".
However, doing the same test using the email address associated with the
recipient, Decryption WORKS.

It sounds like you have two keys. When you use "-r username" you're matching one of them. When you use "-r emailaddr...@example.com" you're matching the other one.

Check your keyring to be sure: do a "gpg --list-keys username" to see all keys that match that name.
