November, 2026

Regarding the global Microsoft 365 outage that began in the early hours of today, 13 November, there has been no significant impact on the main email servers of this Association or OLIVE JAPAN so far. Furthermore, as our email handler uses a system other than Outlook, we are able to send and receive emails as normal. We are receiving competition entries and enquiries as usual and are replying to them in due course; however, if you are using Microsoft 365 software such as Outlook, you may be unable to access your inbox. If your matter is urgent, please use an email client other than Outlook, or a webmail service.
