Yeah was down for a good 20-30 minutes. We use Yahoo mail at work so when it was down it was incredibly annoying. You keep getting this popup box that has your email login and password and asks you to enter them. They're already entered so if you just hit save and OK it should go away. But it would come back repeatedly. The problem is we have 32 users and at last count 11 of them decided to delete the password and put in their windows password(the email password is the same for all of our yahoo accounts it's a password for Yahoo only not your windows password). This resulted in 11 people not having working outgoing mail even after Yahoo came back up so I got to go in and edit their settings and put back the right password.

And you should all go get your outlook.com address before they are all gone.
