Email address assigned to group bounces back
Hey Nestor Holynskyj,
I am guessing your GUI is not working as intended, so instead do some investigation/testing in powershell.
Once you have it assigned to the group try this in powershell.
Get-Recipient info@mycompany.com
If it comes back with not found, then something is not working in the GUI when you are trying to create the group.
Based on what type of group you are referring too, you could then also try to create the group and associate the email address through powershell directly.
O365 group - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office365/enterprise/manage-office-365-groups-with-powershell
Goodluck.
Adam
Adam: Thanks for the response. Turns out that Occam's Razor still holds true. The solution ended up being stupidly simple. When I set up the group, I didn't check off the box that allows people outside our organization to send messages to that address. Checked the box and all is well! As Homer Simpson would say, "Doh!"

Just glad its working! Good to hear!
- Nov 29, 2018Thought you would have been testing from an internal address, that bit of info would have helped ;). Anyway, they really should update the NDR to let you know hey you aren't allowed to send to this address, not this address doesn't exist! lol!
