Anyhow, these isn’t the message you get normally here either!
Can you confirm and see if it find the address in the other team?
You sure you entered the complete external address?

- Jun 19, 2019This should be possible though! Also if this was a existing guest account in your AAD the person should come up as soon as you start typing the name!
A question also: did you select this person when it was auto suggested or continue to type the full address?
