I don't think that at the moment Groups can be used to replace shared mailboxes: they lack really most of the needed features.
In fact Microsoft is touting them as a replacement for DLs and not for SMs, AFAIK.

DLs in my opinion were never what needed to be replaced.- VasilMichevNov 29, 2016MVP
It's simply what the team has decided, and to be honest I havent heard a single good argument around this. I've given the example with Junk email numerous times, the Sent items is another valid reason why people would actually want access to folders. So is subfolders.
Just avoid using groups as replacement for shared mailbox, there are numerous limitations to such scenario.
