Create shared mailbox on Hybrid environment - directly on O365 or onpremises then migrate it to O365
Hi, What is the recommended way to create shared mailboxes for a hybrid environment? There are some issues if you create them directly to O365 - https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3129334/u...

Hi Carlos,
If you have an Hybrid, your autodiscover is pointing to your on-premises Exchange. If you create your Mailbox only in Cloud, your AD and Exchange does not have any propreties of that mailbox, that is the issue.

So, I asume that since AAD Connect does not support write-back (only password) then its better to have the objects created first on-premises then moved to O365 in order to avoud such situations.
Or is there a change that could help on this?

Hi Carlos,
You can create some Exchange objects on-premises manually to do that but if the mailbox has no data on it, just create a new one, it's faster.
