It’s not just you – Microsoft acknowledges Outlook.com email issues

If you’ve been having problems sending or receiving email via your Outlook.com account today, you’re not the only one. The good news is that you can stop tearing your hair out trying to fix it; the bad news is that there is an ongoing issue on Microsoft’s side which has not yet been fixed.

Microsoft has acknowledged that some users are “experiencing issues syncing and sending mail”. On its Outlook.com Service Status page, the company says that it is “working on the issue and expect[s] resolution in the next 24 hours”.

We’ll keep an eye on this throughout the day, and update this post with further information as it becomes available.
