That’s quite the spike in outage reports, courtesy of DownDetector.com!

So what has Microsoft said so far?
Its official status platform confirms there is an issue with Outlook.com, so at least the company is aware of the issue.
“Users may be unable to access their mailbox using any connection methods,” the page says.
“We’re continuing to apply the configuration changes to fix the underlying problem and completing additional validation efforts to ensure authentication components are properly configured. In parallel to the current deployment of the configuration change fix, we’re reviewing options to leverage an expedited deployment methodology in regions which are experiencing the highest levels of impact to provide the most effective relief where possible.”
It adds impacted connection methods include, but may not be limited to:
– Outlook.com
– Outlook Mobile
– Outlook desktop client
