Well, if I were cynical (which of course I'm not), I would say it's because
it's owned by Microsoft. But since I'm not cynical, I would just say they
are frequently doing maintenance and have a quality of service problem.
Not much you can do to your mail server. But again, there should be little
problem... mail servers are designed to handle unavailability, and remote
servers should just retry (as James will).
