Question asked on Aug 6, 2013
I have email alias that was an account that was in Office365. I removed the alias from the Office365 account and then removed the domain from Office365. I was then able to successfully add this domain into live domains. But now when I try to create the account in live domains I get the following error "The requested account name is already in use or was used in the past and has not been through the required waiting period to re-use."

I have moved aliases before in the past without a waiting period. Is this something new? How long is the waiting period to move something from Office365 to live domains?

I need to figure this out or I have to move my email to another host as this account is in limbo right now.
