    1. Hello Jim,
      This issue was for SMTP and has been resolved across all servers. If you are having IMAP issues with your particular account you will want to contact Live Support for individual assistance.

      Kindest Regards,

    2. Please verify I submit a ticket because after that I cannot send email by PHPMailer (Could not instantiate mail function) before that works ok. Also I detected that randomly works with the same account that didnt works before

    3. Hello Martinvarta,

      I am not able to confirm that you sent us a ticket however are you getting any errors when you attempt to send emails out?

    4. Yes, it cannot “instantiate mail function” I ‘m trying to send emails using PHP by SMTP Auth, and this app was working ok until last week, so I think that has a relation.
      I’m changing things at the script but is the same thing

    5. Hello Martinvarta,

      Sorry for the problems with your emails being sent through PHP. Can you provide us some information on the account or ticket? We can then follow up on the issue. If you have submitted a verified support ticket and you wish to handle the issue privately, then please simply reply to the ticket email for further assistance.

      If you have any further questions or comments, please let us know.

    1. Hello Alberto,

      Thank you for contacting us. Ensure your email settings are correct, and Outlook is setup correctly.

      Also, try restarting your Outlook, or computer. I have seen this work in the past.

      If your problems persist, I recommend reviewing the mail logs for errors or record of your connection. If you are on a shared server Live Support can help you review the logs.

      Thank you,
      John-Paul
