Microsoft is currently addressing a multi-day outage affecting Outlook email and other Microsoft 365 services, which has now entered its second day. Significant progress was made on Monday, particularly regarding the Exchange Online service, which experienced email delays, authentication issues, and other disruptions for some users. However, as of Tuesday, the situation remains unresolved, with Microsoft indicating that mitigation actions are ongoing.
This outage is critical as it impacts not only Outlook but also other Microsoft 365 services, including SharePoint, Teams, and the Microsoft 365 Admin Center. The root cause was identified as a misconfiguration affecting core authentication components, which hindered service availability. Microsoft has been implementing various mitigations to restore normal functionality, and while improvements have been noted, full service restoration has yet to be confirmed.
Moving forward, users should monitor updates from Microsoft regarding the status of the services. The company is currently in a phase of extended monitoring to ensure a complete resolution of the issues. No further timeline was disclosed at the time of publication.
