External collaborator on a 365 group, and emails sent to the group
I created a 365 group for a department, so they can collaborate. I also use the group's email address as a distribution list, encouraged by Microsoft when I tried to create a distro list. But he...
Microsoft 365 Groups are based on the premise of "equal access" for all members, which also extends to some Guests scenarios. You should be able to remove the Guest from the group's "subscribers" list in order to prevent messages from being delivered in his inbox, though that will apply to any and all messages addressed to the group.
Here's the relevant cmdlet just in case:
Remove-UnifiedGroupLinks -Links guestID -LinkType subscriber

- Thank you for replying.
If I understand correctly, by doing this no member of the group would receive emails, correct? If so, this wouldn't work. My premise was to have the Group's email address act as a distribution list, but only for internal members.- It's on a per-user basis, you can decide which specific users/guests receive the messages.
- Thank you so much for this.
I'm trying to do this now, but I'm running into an issue connecting to Exchange Online. I'll troubleshoot that first, then give your recommendation a try (my PowerShell skills are -10). I may have to continue next week, though. I didn't want you to think that I ignored your reply.
I'll report back.
