    @Defnotaspoof @Outlook I am having same problem not being able to send emails. What is going on?

  • JeffinHollywood Jeffery Brown (@JeffinHollywood) reported

    @Outlook after your announced fix only new email is coming in. Anything that was sent during the downtime is still not arriving. I know this because I sent tests to myself the past 6 hrs. The one I just sent 3 mins ago came in. All of the ones I sent earlier have not. Any ideas?

  • audreychernoff Audreychernoff (@audreychernoff) reported

    @Outlook no one is receiving my emails! Is there a problem sending emails?

  • quaintjester Jester (@quaintjester) reported

    Hey @Microsoft if you're going to crow non-stop about your AI changing the world, how about applying it to your @Outlook products to finally stop SPAM? It's worse than it's ever been and your decades of crap filtering is consistently terrible at obvious bad emails.

  • audreychernoff Audreychernoff (@audreychernoff) reported

    @Defnotaspoof @Outlook I am having the same issue. I am glad it is not just me, because they will probably fix it.

  • 7_othman ~ (@7_othman) reported

    @Outlook Hello.. I cannot send or receive messages on my account. When will the problem be solved?

  • ANicolsonphoto Alex ⬛⬜⬛⬜ (@ANicolsonphoto) reported

    @meflyingblind @Outlook If go over Microsoft storage it will still cause issues with sending receiving emails even if email storage is ok. So it's either backup elsewhere and delete files from Microsoft storage
