Is this regarding and outlook.com/hotmail.com mailbox? if so, I'm experiencing issues as well.

I had created a hotmail.com mailbox last week for my father in-law and that worked fine on 3 different devices until yesterday. (Tuesday 9th of April). Since then, he can receive Emails, but mails he sent from that mailbox sent without error, but are never received by the recipient.

I tried this from an iOS device, Android Device and Outlook.com site on a Windows PC and all show the same behavior. Signing in and out of the Microsoft account does not resolve this.


Update: just found out there is indeed an issue and Microsoft is aware of the issue:

Other outlook.com mailboxes, like my own are working fine, so it seems not all Outlook.com mailboxes are impacted.
