Exchange Online outage triggers email delays and 'Server busy' errors
An ongoing Exchange Online service disruption is delaying messages to and from external domains and prompting users to see 'Server busy' notifications.
Microsoft’s Exchange Online cloud email service is experiencing an ongoing outage that is slowing the delivery of email sent to or received from external domains.
Users report encountering a 'Server busy' error when trying to send messages, indicating a temporary overload or capacity limit within the service.
Microsoft says it is actively investigating and working to resolve the issue, marking the incident as 'ongoing' on its status page and providing regular updates to affected customers.
The delay in external email exchange can disrupt business communications, slow down customer response times, and affect overall productivity for organizations relying on the service.
In Uzbekistan, many companies depend on Exchange Online for their corporate email, so the outage highlights the importance of monitoring cloud service reliability and having contingency plans such as alternative communication channels.
