Exchange Hybrid - Removed license state of mailbox
What happens to the online mailbox if the O365 license is removed and the account is disabled. I can't find it in get-mailbox and I don't see it as soft deleted
Get-Mailbox first.lastname@company.com
Get-Mailbox -SoftDeletedMailbox | Select-Object Name,ExchangeGuid
If I assign the license again, the mailbox shows back up with items.
How long until an unlicensed mailbox gets removed or is deleted?

It seems you’ve followed the correct steps for hybrid setup!
