Hide Group email from global address list
Setwart you can do so via PowerShell: Set-UnifiedGroup -Id Group -HiddenFromAddressListsEnabled $True
cfiessinger I thought to give an update here and express my thanks for the direction and advice.
Problem was raised with Microsoft, their engineer did a great job, we worked along, ran diagnostics on their end that fixed the issue. So it was just a bad O365 Mailbox creation and/or the property
addresslistmembership was not being synced properly.
All in all, that scripting command works like a charm if you needed to hide your O365 email address from GAL.

In this uservoice:

it states:
Based on customer feedback, new Office 365 Groups generated as a result of creating a team in Microsoft Teams will no longer show in Outlook by default.
Well... that was in 2018 & now in 2021, I still have O365 groups showing by default in Outlook when Teams are created.
So what is the actual default (or is it something that needs to be set somewhere?)

edit
Still no idea about the default, but I hide them (or unhide) with PS
Connect-ExchangeOnline -UserPrincipalName email address removed for privacy reasons -ShowBanner:$false
$Groups = Get-UnifiedGroup -ResultSize Unlimited | ? {$_.PrimarySmtpAddress -like "Some_common_name_good_for_ie_teams_created_from_MIS*"}
Foreach ($Group in $Groups) {Set-UnifiedGroup -Identity $Group.Name -HiddenFromAddressListsEnabled $false}
