Microsoft is reporting issues with accessing Microsoft 365 (Rutgers Connect) email and calendars. The issue affects the web version of Outlook and possibly other methods of connecting.

Various Rutgers email alias services will undergo planned maintenance from 10 p.m. Friday, Nov. 13, until approximately 2 a.m. Saturday, Nov. 14. ScarletMail and Rutgers Connect will remain available, but during this timeframe, users may experience delays receiving email to personalized @rutgers.edu addresses. The Service Activation process, for setting up some IT services at Rutgers, will also be temporarily unavailable. This maintenance is required to apply vendor-mandated system updates that will improve overall system support and enhance the delivery of large file attachments.
