Microsoft Outlook outage prevents users from sending, receiving emails
07-Feb-23
A persistent outage impacting Microsoft’s Outlook webmail service is being looked into and fixed. Outlook.com users have reported problems with sending, receiving, or searching email. Others claim that they cannot access Outlook.com, that they receive 500 Errors when attempting to log in, or that their whole accounts have been deleted, and that they are unable to view any emails even after connecting. Redmond is undertaking targeted restarts to parts of the infrastructure affected by a recent modification, according information supplied via the company’s Microsoft 365 Status Twitter account. Customers in North America are experiencing the outage, which began at about 6 AM UTC on Tuesday and has now expanded to other areas of the world owing to the compromised infrastructure.
