Sending, receiving, and organizing email in Outlook.com
Hello Ray
Since this began after an outage and mainly affects mail from other Outlook accounts, it may be a remaining mailbox-routing problem that requires Outlook.com Support to investigate. Since this is a user-to-user forum, we cannot access your account or investigate mail delivery from Microsoft’s side.
Support chat availability can vary by country, product, and support hours, so try again later or at a different time. You can also use an InPrivate/Incognito window or sign in with another personal Microsoft account. If the automated assistant opens, type “I need a live agent.”
Alternatively, go to Microsoft Support, briefly describe the issue, select Get Help, then scroll down and choose Sign in to contact support. When directed to the product categories, select Other products > Outlook, then follow the prompts to reach the Support team.
If you’re still having trouble, please let me know at which stage you’re being disconnected from the support process.
