I am trying to respond to an email for a company, I have already sent the 1 reply 5 days ago.

I received a message from Outlook.com Team ******@outlook.com saying:

The daily message limit helps us free the world from spammers--we're sorry that it's getting in your way. Thanks, The Outlook.com Team .

Does this suggest that someone else is sending messages from my account? How do I find out? I cannot find any information on helping me to sort this out. It's increadbly frustrating.

    That is so strange. Let me share the steps to contact the backend Outlook Team since it will require deeper investigation.

    On Outlook, click Help > help.

    Type your query something like "Email limit reached".

    Click Yes, beside Still need help, and sign in if needed.

    You will be routed to an agent.
