      Hm.. no i have groupwrite back Feature... my Users still cant modifiy their DL an DL i created at the cloud are not sync back.

      I can just create group wiht @onmicrsoft .com and use them for mail, I still have no Solution for my DLs.

      I can modify DL at the cloud but Onpremises User dont see the online DL in their adress book.
