Sending Alert to DL
We have a Distribution List that can be resolved in Outlook Web Mail, but not when we try to configure a SPO alert. Is this supposed to work?

Have a look at this article: http://geekswithblogs.net/shehan/archive/2009/10/12/exchange-outlook-distribution-list-mailing-group-not-showing-up-in.aspx
Does it help?

Thanks, it sort of does, but since it is so old, I'm not very confident that it still applies. I have learned that many of those limitations from on-premises no longer apply in Office 365, but it is hard to figure out which ones have been eliminated and which one are still in effect.

Dean_Gross it still applies. If the group is just a distribution list only you cannot use it for alerts.

thanks, what about a Office Group? I'm expecting this work but it does not either.

Try it and let us know...
