  • SelfMadeMastery Kelly 🌟 (@SelfMadeMastery) reported

    @theonlystonez @MicrosoftHelps @Outlook I actually just got a new router delivered to start over with a new IP address. Sadly a new IP/using a VPN won't fix the issue with outlook flagging my current accounts (I can't send/deliver on any network from those accounts), but it may fix it for any new accounts I make!

  • JuneJustcurious Justcurious (@JuneJustcurious) reported

    @dafuerapadentro @Outlook I’m still down

  • rxgirl65 Christina Marks (@rxgirl65) reported

    @Outlook Fix your darn e-mail servers!! No e-mails since 10:30 am PST. WTF? Waiting on an important Zoom invite. So close to ditching your product!

  • CKLeibel C Leibel (@CKLeibel) reported

    @Outlook Hey there, can you fix whatever you broke? Can't send or receive emails. Hellllloooooooo

  • SelfMadeMastery Kelly 🌟 (@SelfMadeMastery) reported

    @katensch @MicrosoftHelps @Outlook Hi Kate! I was having this issue several weeks ago too, so I'm not entirely sure it's a global issue. Hotmail doesn't like my IP. I'm curious, is mail being sent to your "junk" folder that normally shouldn't be? Mail from all my usual contacts is being directed to "junk" today.

  • Lori_Azim Lori Azim (@Lori_Azim) reported

    @adi0229 @Outlook I cannot send or receive, even though the sent emails show up in the sent folder. Problem on web, iPhone, you name it. Sure are tons of issues at Microsoft these days.

  • Shizmac84 Shawn Workman (@Shizmac84) reported

    @Outlook emails are not working. They show sent but they are in limbo for a lot of people and businesses that I have for emails for years from are going to junk.

  • howboutnow Same as it ever was 🦋🐲🔥 (@howboutnow) reported

    @Outlook 3 of my emails went down sometime after 3:39 pm EST. Can't email or get them. Downdector has Microsoft 365 down with reports from just before that & big orange/red dot over downstate NY. Whats up?

  • theonlystonez Stonez 🩸🩸🩸 (@theonlystonez) reported

    @SelfMadeMastery @MicrosoftHelps @Outlook Quick tip, get yourself a VPN & tunnel your traffic into the U.S. somewhere to get around the problem. Free advice, no money needed... other than the VPN itself.

  • DeeDee__1963 Dawn (@DeeDee__1963) reported

    @sweetestpotates @Outlook Yes, not working for me since this afternoon.
