In a post on its official website, Microsoft had said the service dropped “unexpectedly” and it is working to fix it. A spokesperson from the firm cited intermittent connectivity as the reason behind the outage experienced across many countries in Europe.
“We've identified that a subset of infrastructure was unable to process requests as expected, which caused general service availability to drop unexpectedly," the company’s status page reads.
“We've redirected requests to alternate infrastructure to restore service, and we're monitoring the environment while connectivity recovers. Additionally, we're investigating an issue in which users are unable to send email messages.”
The email service Outlook incorporates Hotmail and Windows Live Hotmail accounts.
