UG> relying on 1 email or cloud provider is stupid.

How does one have redundant email on a single email address or domain?

I suppose you can have multiple MX records but that doesn't solve anything if
the MX is up but the users can't get to it.

You could have MX pointing to different services but that's chaos, have to
constantly check two or more email services for same email address.

The simple conclusion is that people on Exchange Online had a really bad day
and there was nothing reasonable they could do about it.
