Email with Teams
I am new to trying to figure out the integration of teams into our environment. We rely heavily on distribution lists. I'm personally used to shared mailboxes, but our end users are not. How can I ...
I think we finally figured out how to do this ourselves. Some of the other respondents above helped.
- Open up the team in Teams app by clicking on General
- Click on the ... at the top right corner
- Select Open in SharePoint
- Click on Conversations (left side)
- Click on the ... in the approximate middle of the screen
- Click on Settings
- Click on Edit Group (we noticed that this doesn't show up until a certain amount of time after the group has been created)
- Scroll down and ensure that Members will receive all group conversations and events in their inboxes... is checked off
- Click Save
After this box is clicked then emails sent through Outlook to the team will go to their inboxes (otherwise it just goes to the Team Group, which they are unlikely to see).
Hope this helps somebody!
This did not work for me. Whenever I click on step 4 "Conversations" I get redirected to my own inbox. I have tried clicking Conversations on groups that have email already, and I get redirected to the Outlook Group.
This is a bug. Microsoft has again managed to create an unexplainable loop in their ecosystem that for the regular user creates a terrible and frustrating experience.
Not having an email for a group I have created through Teams is one of the many reasons why we may leave MS 365 for good.
