There is not only the problem that private outlook.com email accounts are deactivated because of suspicious activities for POP3 and IMAP. Business users currently also seem to have problems accessing their mailboxes via the web interface. The login is denied. In addition, during a research today I noticed some people where Outlook as a client is on strike and can't access the mail servers. It always asks for credentials.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>Problems with outlook.com<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/vg04.met.vgwort.de\/na\/01963383fb4143c99c1aac87bc7ab9f7\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" \/>Microsoft has <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MSFT365Status\/status\/1549029995791765505\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">announced<\/a> on Twitter via Social Media Team that there are problems with outlook.com and they are investigating the whole thing (I came across it <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bleepingcomputer.com\/news\/microsoft\/microsoft-investigates-ongoing-exchange-online-outlook-outage\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MSFT365Status\/status\/1549029995791765505\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/IV1wjT8.png\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>According to the short text, users are experiencing problems accessing Exchange Online and outlook[.]com services.
