S3150 == throttling, possibly daily limit.
IIRC, S3140 is an hourly limit; check your logs and see if you got that.

Past that, Consumer is no longer my lookout, but ... good luck?
And as others have said, the first response is a robot with a few clues, but if 
you don't get satisfaction, reply and "escalate".

Aloha,
Michael.

It's almost certainly throttling due to volume.

But we'd know better if you could share ...

The Sending IP

The full error message.



Was it a 450 System Busy, please try again later? Then it's absolutely 
throttling.

Aloha,

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [mailop] Microsoft Blocking



Microsoft is blocking mail from us (Wikstrom Telephone Company, small,

rural ISP).



My guess is this is a lingering or second-order effect from yesterday's

outage. For example, since all that mail was delayed, when they came

back online, perhaps the resulting higher volume of mail tripped their

spam filtering.



I submitted support request 7096434358 at olcsupport.office.com.



I received an automated or form response that effectively says we are

not blocked. But we still are. The automated/form response asked for

specific error messages, which I had already provided in the support

request (it was a required field). I replied to the email with a fresh

example.



Anyone have other ideas or a useful contact?
