Replies sent to Distro list owner
Not sure I understand the issue here, if the mail was rejected, it will not be delivered to anyone in the group, be it owner or member. Best run a message trace to see what happens: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/security/office-365-security/message-trace-scc?view=o365-worldwide
Hi Vasil, thank you for your response.
It does seem strange but this is the flow....(I am the owner of the Distro list)
From my OWA, I create a new email - To: TestDistro@<mydomain>
This email is sent to a Gmail user - mailto:user@gmail.com
The mailto:user@gmail.com replies
The mailto:user@gmail.com gets a bounce message
I get the email in my inbox.
I have attached a screenshot of the message trace, of the sent and received email, and the bounce message.
Thanks again for your input.

Get the "detailed" message trace, it should hopefully give you an idea why the message was sent to the owner.
I believe it was sent to the owner, because the email To TestDistro was sent From the owner. A Distro list doesn't have it's own mailbox. It must be sent from a delegated person who has Send as and Send on Behalf...which is me (and I am also the owner). So the reply is sent to the delegate who happens, in this case, to also be the owner.
Thanks
Che
