Hi FloStu,
Great question. Could you clarify what you mean by adjusting their access rights? For example, if you mean can these users have full/send as permissions and access to others mailbox then you can. You would need to set these permissions in the Exchange Admin Centre.

Hi ChrisHoardMVP,
the external persons should only have access (send/receive) to their own company e-mails, they should not have any rights like normal users/employees and should therefore see internal information such as calendars, groups, persons, tasks. Basically they should be guests with a company e-mail address.

Funny, we can't be the only ones who work with external employees but want to limit them to email only?!
I have set up a new Outlook Web Policy for testing, so the user only has the old view (no calendar or groups) if he click on the Outlook icon at the O365 dashboard but if he knows the url (https://outlook.office365.com/mail/inbox) he will end up in the new Outlook.
Best, Flo
