Outlook.com is back up and running in Europe

Laurent Giret

Yesterday, Microsoft’s Outlook.com was hit by a service outage in Europe, which prevented many users to access the service or send and receive emails. After investigating the issue and deploying a fix, Microsoft confirmed on the Office 365 Service Health page today that the consumer email service is now back up and running in Europe.

“We’ve verified that new mails are being sent and received as expected, and the previous queue has returned to normal,” explained Microsoft in the latest update published earlier today. “A very small number of messages sent during the incident may be delivered over the next few hours as the last remaining messages are processed.”

Have you been affected by the outage yesterday, and if so are you now able to use Outlook.com as usual ? Let us know below.
