Microsoft Says Microsoft 365 Recovery Has Made Further Progress

Microsoft said recovery efforts for services affected by an outage had made “further progress.” According to Sina Finance, restoration work on some affected infrastructure in Asia-Pacific has been completed, and traffic is gradually returning. Microsoft said some key customer scenarios, including mailbox access and handling delayed emails, have improved, and it is focusing on extending recovery operations to affected infrastructure in other regions. Service capacity has not returned to normal, and service health remains unstable as traffic is cautiously reintroduced. To protect delayed emails while services continue to recover, Microsoft extended the email timeout window to 48 hours.
