    Sinceramente, não consigo utilizar o e-mail desde hoje durante a manhã. É muito estranho e todos da empresa não tem acesso ao e-mail.

    Entretanto, meu outro e-mail pessoal está sem problema algum.

    500 Something went wrong. An unexpected error occurred and your request couldn't be handled.

    Our Teams is missing both the dial pad and calendar along with Status is Unknown? How can we fix these since we are no longer able to make telephone calls in Teams?

    Buenas tardes. No he podido iniciar sesión en mi laptop para recibir y/o enviar correos en mi cuenta de Outlook. Ya eliminé la sync de contactos con teams, pero el problema continúa. Constantemente se despliega un mensaje de "Refreshing". Ya lo he hecho varias veces y sigue sin funcionar. Por favor ayuda.
