Wednesday April 3 1:30pm: Microsoft is aware of an issue where some users may be unable to download attachments from Outlook on the web (OWA). Signing out and back into Outlook on the web may temporarily mitigate the issue.
Microsoft is currently working on a fix.
In a separate issue, some users may experience delays of up to five minutes when accessing Outlook on the web (OWA) and its features. Microsoft is working on a fix for this issue.
The Outlook app is not affected by these problems, only the web version.
