    Users may have been unable to delete email messages after running the QUIT command through the POP3 connection method

    Last Update: 2026-01-26 05:52(JST)

    Status: Service Restored
    Affected Service: Exchange Online

    Specifically, POP3 users could read and download their email
    messages, but any messages they deleted may not have actually been removed,
    because the session failed to close properly. If a message was deleted on
    Exchange Online using the DELE command, the POP3 QUIT command may have failed,
    preventing the session from closing cleanly and caused messages marked for
    deletion to remain in the mailbox.

    If the user was not using POP3, they were not impacted.
