Microsoft’s Outlook email service suffered a massive outage Thursday, leaving users across North America and potentially other regions unable to access their inboxes. Microsoft’s Microsoft 365 Status account on X posted at 12:54 p.m. ET that the company was "investigating reports of users experiencing issues accessing Exchange Online mailboxes through multiple connection methods in the Americas." DownDetector and other reports showed thousands of users affected, and separate reports put the total struggling worldwide at more than 100,000. Microsoft did not provide an estimated time for a fix. The outage affected multiple connection methods to Exchange Online and persisted while Microsoft worked to identify and resolve the cause.
