Microsoft Outlook Down?
We have not received email for several hours and are unable to send. Anyone else having issues?

Supposed to be pretty much system wide. Got this from my wife's IT guy a few minutes ago.

Yes.
I was notified sometime early today by my broker-dealer.



"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

Damn, two answers within one minute, must be some kind of record. Also odd that I had to switch from Brave to Safari to post this(?)

"Elevated infrastructure load."

"Microsoft says 'unexpectedly unavailable' servers strained remaining infrastructure, triggering outages."




Politicians seem to have forgotten that they work for us, not the other way around.

We've not identified any recent change correlated with the start of impact; however, our investigation indicates the failed health checks may originate from a specific component that's responsible for processing server health. We've taken steps to prevent additional servers from being impacted while we work to return the affected servers to service.

Sounds like they're trying to mitigate a 'Hack' which is causing cascading failure(s) in their server infrastructure.

Is this a mal attack? Or another case of stupid actions? Seems at least annual event.

I have gotten SO MUCH done without teams and email working. Smile Unfortunately, I know it will make it worse tomorrow.

My accounting software crashed. Sage said to uninstall the Microsoft Windows Nov 11 update. I did & then postponed updates until Nov 23. All worked when the undate was uninstalled.

I noticed problems beginning yesterday. I normally keep about 10 important emails in my inbox, and when I needed one yesterday for a discount at a store, all 10 were gone. They were all restored some time later.

National Productivity Skyrockets After Microsoft Teams Goes Down

My company switched to Teams from Slack about 2 years ago and the message board function is terrible compared to Slack. I literally cannot find even something I commented on a week ago.

Mine worked today but reminded me of the old 56k modem dial-up days.

Some of my coworkers had no e-mail.

Out here since noon-ish. I am surprised they haven't shown us how fast they can fix problems using AI for troubleshooting.

The company added this garbage to our iPhones. Constant updates and challenges to my identity. Completely screwed my contacts list. If it was any good it would not need to update so often.
