How do I add a guest mail user to adress lists or create a mail contact using the same email address
To be honest, it's a bit of a mess as you can actually have the same address added twice:
[10:36:59][Login script]# Get-Recipient tempxxx@abv.bg | Ft Name,RecipientType* Name RecipientType RecipientTypeDetails ---- ------------- -------------------- temp MailContact MailContact tempxxx_abv.bg#EXT# MailUser GuestMailUser
The "trick" is to have the contact first, then provision the Guest account. Doesn't really make much sense to me, but TonyRedmond seems to see the logic in all this and perhaps can explain it better :)
What's the best thing to do if I already have the guest user? If I delete the guest user's will they lose access to SharePoint?
And how will this work with guest users in teams? Can we edit the username for those contacts, as they are currently uneditable
You can edit the details of guest users through the Office 365 Admin Center. Select them from the list of active users and edit their contact information as you would for any other user.
What I thought too. But there is a little "world" circle behidn the contact and it only allows to edit username which is "email adddress"#EXT#@domain.onmicrosoft.com
edit: so you cant do it in the exchange admin centre where they are listed under Contacts together with the same contact we have setup on-prem AD as contact - but only on office 365 Active users and they are cloud only and have nothing todo with our on-prem setup . So now I have to manage the account for the same person twice if - they get married for example
