I'm not quite understanding what you want to do here? Only Team/group members (or owners) can access a team and see or send chat messages. Anyone not a member will not be able to. What is it you are looking to achieve please?

PeterRising I would like to create a channel in Teams where ANY member of my organization can send a message that can be viewed and replied to , but only the sender can see the chat history and conversation. I have hundreds of employees. I would liek them to send there chat questions to my Team of [4 or 5 members], but not have hundreds of folks see our responses.

    I am happy to be corrected if anyone knows otherwise, but I think what you want to do is simply not possible.
