Outlook.com Outage

No, https://status.live.com/ is worldwide.

All should be back to normal now. In part from the history entry:

This incident was a result of a failure in a caching service that interfaces with devices using Exchange ActiveSync, including most smart phones. The failure caused these devices to receive an error and continuously try to connect to our service. This resulted in a flood of traffic that our services did not handle properly, with the effect that some customers were unable to access their Outlook.com email and unable to share their SkyDrive files via email. In order to stabilize the overall email service, we temporarily blocked access via Exchange ActiveSync. This allowed us to restore access to Outlook.com via the web and restore the sharing features of SkyDrive.

It's not back to normal though lol. I'm still disconnected from my public email account. It was on earlier today, but it's been down for a while again. :banghead:

My main email has never been disconnected throughout this time.

There is someone at another venue who is also on blu-m and reported yesterday that he gets the message: "blu-m.hotmail.com is unavailable" with an error code of 85010017. He is located in Arizona, not Canada.
 
It's working again today, but it's been on and off these past 2 days. As of today though I haven't noticed any downtime.
