ugh, is it me or Outlook broke today?

checking

just woke up to find a "insert your password" dialog, input correct password and it dies with a "Too Many Requests"

amazingly the same happens if I try logging in from the browser instead

(I know my password is correct - if I type in the wrong one it gets rejected as expected, but the correct one instead goes to a "Too Many Requests" error page)

web works for me on release

tomman:

yes, the "Too Many Requests" is a HTTP 429 error

OK, erased my cookies for Outlook, now this time instead I get a blank page and a 403 error

too many signin requests is a thing

if I try instead from Mail&News, I keep getting that dreaded 429

yay MICROS~!

yay MICROS~1

yeah you're spamming microsoft

not me, could be my stupid CGNAT then

mrnhmath: hello

let me try a login from FFESR then...

...yes, MS has shitlisted me

it ALSO fails with a 429 error!!!!

ugh, this is why I HATE CGNAT

stop hammering the system

you're just making it worse

Problem is, half of my banks rely on that email address

and today is a regional holiday

tried logging in in a post-useable browser?

tomman: these anti-spam messures can get paranoid as fuck any number of factors could trigger it.. but least this time it sure isn't anything to do with SeaMonkey's capabilities or lack there of

good morning nsITobin

unless its on the mailnews side and that is triggering .. messures

nsITobin: so yeah, this time the only thing i can associate is my CGNAT'd connection, which keeps me causing problems with many sites because CGNAT is a crime against human rights

as in mailnews triggers some flagged activity fucking your account.. that will teach you to use netscape!

nothing is more netscape in the comm side more than mailnews core

except maybe chatzilla

the rest has been virtually redesigned by now

I can't even login to ANY Microsoft site, so can't even check for "suspicious" activity

loooooovely, Micro-Soft

use edge

if you can't with edge then i guess you haven't been a good party member

I have no Windows devices in this house that can run Chredge

but wait, I can try something else

...let me switching to a mobile connection

I thought ipv6 was supposed to eliminate NAT and the need for carrier grade network address translation

also good morning the frg

nsITobin tomman greetings

any luck tomman

OK, some progress

today was the day cellphones decided to have GPRS-like latency on 4G, but whatever

from a mobile tethered to my PC, indeed MS forced me to reset my password

so I went and did it... the whole sekuritah theater

(this was from the Mail&News OAUTH logon dialog, getting recovery codes from another account with a modal dialog on top of a 768p display is... not fun)

Anyway, MS still cockblocks me from logging into my MS account from the browser on my main ISP, but I at least managed to please the MSOAUTH2 gods... today
