Updated: E-mail Outage for VSU
Update Aug. 18
Microsoft reported that the outage which began at 3:00pm Eastern
Daylight Saving Time was addressed with resolution beginning at
6:00pm and was finally resolved at 8:16pm. The outage, which
affected all North American customers including our sister schools
UGA and GSU, would result in some email delays that should complete
delivery within the next 24 hours.
Aug. 17
At 3:00 p.m. on Aug. 17, we began receiving reports that users were
unable to access VSU e-mail from either the Windows Live web site
or other devices and clients. We have reported this issue to
Microsoft and are working with them to determine a course of
action. We apologize for the loss of productivity.
Microsoft is working on resolving the issue, but has not provided
us on the estimate for the time to repair it. This issue is not
specific to Valdosta State University, and other Microsoft
customers are likewise being affected.
