Office 365 is designed to be functional on almost any modern web browser.  However, some features may be unavailable on outdated versions of some browsers.  Microsoft recommends using one of the following browser versions to insure full functionality on all of the Office 365 services:

  •          Internet Explorer 9 or later
  •          Firefox 12 or later
  •          Safari 5 or later
  •          Chrome 18 or later
Any messages sent to your email address during the system outage will be delivered to your mailbox. When the upgrade is complete, your new messages will be waiting in your Inbox.
You may visit Microsoft's website for detailed setup instructions for most mobile phones and tablets.
