- “We’re seeing encouraging recovery progress, with service availability and email delivery performance improving across a growing portion of affected Microsoft 365 infrastructure. Some users may still experience intermittent issues as recovery actions continue,” the company wrote in a post at 7:09 a.m. ET.
- “We’re focused on recovery for the remaining affected environments while prioritizing email queue and backlog reduction. The extended 48-hour email timeout window remains in place to help protect delayed messages as delivery catches up.”
