Is there a way to convert Office 365 group to Shared Mailbox easily? + DL's changing email address
Is there a way to convert Office 365 group to Shared Mailbox easily using powershell, we dont want to loose the conversations either or is it too complex.
Users dont want an office 365 group,...
You should be able to delete group and then restore the mail into a new shared mailbox.
$deletedGroup=get-mailbox -SoftDeletedMailbox -GroupMailbox -Filter {name -like "o365groupname*"}
$targetuser=get-mailbox -Identity sharedbox@yourtenant.onmicrosoft.com
New-MailboxRestoreRequest -SourceMailbox $deletedGroup.DistinguishedName -TargetMailbox $targetuser.DistinguishedName -AllowLegacyDNMismatch -Verbose
To show the restore status
Get-MailboxRestoreRequest
lost without a folder list , they don't get the drag and drop concept users never have, if they had a archive button, with archived conversations then maybe !
The only thing that comes close to migration is to do an eDiscovery search and use the resulting set to upload into a Shared mailbox. Or use some EWS-based script or 3rd party tool to do a "migration". But as Juan said, there's nothing built-in.
