Outlook / Microsoft Email Delivery Issue Thursday 26th February 2026 05:46:00


We are currently seeing increased rejection rates for emails sent to Microsoft-hosted addresses (Outlook, Hotmail, Live, MSN).

This issue is related to an ongoing problem acknowledged by Microsoft, where certain sending IPs are being temporarily rejected at higher rates. Microsoft is actively investigating. More info: https://substrate.office.com/ip-domain-management-snds/Postmaster

Delivery to non-Microsoft providers is unaffected. We are monitoring the situation and will provide updates as more information becomes available.

Email delivery to Microsoft-hosted addresses (Outlook, Hotmail, Live, MSN) has returned to normal. This issue was caused by a temporary problem on Microsoft's side and is now resolved.
