Again."},"content":{"rendered":"

Not to sound like a broken record, but Microsoft Hotmail and Outlook users are having problems again. In fact since reporting on issues related to the Hotmail-to-Outlook.com changeover in early January, there’s been a fairly\u00a0steady flow of complaints<\/a> from users about inaccessible or only partly operative email. Much of that time, the Microsoft status page showed no issue but on Tuesday night it lit up like a Christmas tree.<\/p>

There was another public flare up of problems <\/a>at the end of February. At that time, a Microsoft spokeswoman explained that when a small number of users are affected the status page will not show a problem. Issues that impact a significant number of customers, on the other hand, “will be noted and visible on the server status page.”<\/p>

#hotmail<\/a> and #outlook<\/a> have been down since 2:35pm PDT. See status.live.com\/detail\/outlook<\/a>.—
