Team - Group Mailbox Storage

Question

Hi All,I understand that office 365 E3 group mailbox storage is 50 GB. Do we need to purchase additional storage if we hit the limit or is it unlimited? Can&nbsp;we setup the&nbsp;archive mailbox for group mailbox in office 365?&nbsp;&nbsp;What are the best practices to manage storage and capacity planning for group mailbox created with Teams?.&nbsp;What are the steps to check allocated available&nbsp;group mailbox storage for the team?&nbsp;Thanks for your help.

Hi Badal Ratra,See articlehttps://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office365/servicedescriptions/exchange-online-service-description/exchange-online-limitsGroup mailboxes are 50Gb. Unfortunately this can't be added to. No archiving functionality as confirmed here:https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Exchange/Questions-on-Office-365-Groups-archiving/td-p/389477Checking group mailbox storage you could get through the Office 365 Groups reporthttps://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office365/admin/activity-reports/office-365-groups?view=o365-worldwideBest way to manage storage for a group mailbox is probably through a retention policy as opposed to manually deleting it as suggested in the following articlehttps://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/msonline/en-US/b17802a3-204f-4504-a3a6-0f7a67240787/office365-group-storageHope that answers your questions!Best, Chris
