If you are not in the group, and both of the tabs in the article are turned off, the email wouldn’t get there.
Let me know how it goes.

I set up all of the groups, so for now I'm a member of all groups.
The outside organization is set to true.
The other one, I can't change?
I set it in 365 admin, click save, when I open it again it's disabled.
If I try to do it in exchange admin i get this:
I think this has to do with the fact that it's a 365 enabled yammer group. Just sucks that I'll have to make a SECOND group for each team to be able to use email. And since the "groupname@intranet.domain.com" is taken it's going to be "groupname1@...", which will also show up in the address book. Try convincing my users that this is a nice system... Gaaah.

In that case I would advise the following - I would test creating an Office 365 group from the Admin Centre. I would set it per the article above to ensure mail routing works and create a Team from it. If that works out I would personally create the Office 365 groups, not Office 365 Yammer Groups. Then its simply two groups to manage whilst allowing you the email functionality. This is the best of the worst scenario until Microsoft further unify it down the line, and will be the least administration
