Yesterday and today outlook.com is refusing all group email.
I have two different groups that I use weekly. Today I get this message.'

    I did the same. The new group seems to work, at least for some members, but each time I send I get :

    Delivery has failed to these recipients or groups:

    ******@mts.outlook.com
    Your message couldn't be delivered. The Domain Name System (DNS) reported that the recipient's domain does not exist.

    Contact the recipient by some other means (by phone, for example) and ask them to tell their email admin that it appears that their domain isn't properly registered at their domain registrar. Give them the error details shown below. It's likely that the recipient's email admin is the only one who can fix this problem.

    I have no idea what this email address is; it certainly isn't part of my group.

    The new group seems to work, at least for some members, but each time I send I get :

    I had to recreate my group to solve the visibility problem.

    Abandoned the old group.

    My Group email sends appear to be working but getting delivery failed to these recipients or groups (******@mts.outlook.com).

    And always getting an error when attempting to see members (something went wrong. Please Try later)

    Not an email address that I am aware of or can decipher.

    regards
