You no longer receive messages sent to Office 365 'Groups' that you are a member of
Update (7/25/2018):
Thanks for all your feedback and sharing your concerns. Our mission is to help you be more productive at your work, and some users complained about their workflows being affected with this change.
Based on the feedback we've seen from our users on this post, we are working on making this option configurable for our users. We are adding a switch which can be toggled by the user to start receiving their sent emails to Groups back in their inbox.
The exact details on how this setting can be used and the timeline for this change will be communicated soon. Thanks for your patience.
MicrosoftHi folks, I have some great news! Thanks a lot for patiently waiting for this functionality with O365 groups. We are happy to announce that we are introducing a user setting which will allow users to start receiving their sent emails to O365 groups back in their inbox.
Please refer to this link to learn how to use this feature: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/follow-a-group-in-outlook-e147fc19-f548-4cd2-834f-80c6235b7c36?ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US#ID0EAACAAA=Web
As always, we are open to more feedback on this functionality and we'd love to know what you think.
Hi Ravin,
That setting is a good start, but as others say we really just want it as a company wide toggle - and then a per group setting to override the company wide default.
I'd rather see the reverse - users get their own emails just like a normal DL, but have a toggle to turn it off if they want.
Hope this feedback is taken on board 🙂
