Hello, i'm a Outlook user in France (mind, i also have a gmail account, but as my full name was already taken on gmail, i use my hotmail address as my "official" mail account, darthmaul_666@gmail.com doesn't sound like corporate/administrative compatible ;-)
Outlook is pretty much titsup in Europe, yes.
Intermittent web portal access.
No outbound mail (the portal says "the user doesn't have the rights to send mail" or something like that).
And probably no inbound neither (i've just ran some tests).
The service seems broken since at least this morning.
I suspect that the problem comes from a botched code update to the Outlook portal, rather than a server farm issue.
As an IT professionnal, this kind of service interruptions (pretty frequent) only inspire one opinion : don't EVER migrate your corporate mails to Outlook 365, don't EVER buy any cloudified service from Microsoft =)
Biting the hand that feeds IT
