    Microsoft has prevented the delivery of messages. We detected that you have 9 undelivered or delayed mails which didn't get to you. This was caused due to a system mail delivery malfunction and securely upgrade to a more secure platform.

    You have to Review & Release Messages to your mailbox to avoid System Violation.

  2. phishing email

    While there are legitimate emails from the Microsoft account team,
    email phishing scams using the Microsoft name
    are very common so you have to be very careful. A
    legitimate email address domain from Microsoft is @accountprotection.microsoft.com.


    This is an example of an older scam:
    Ask Leo: Is Windows Live Hotmail about to close my account?
