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?

Dean_Gross it sounds like you have the permissions to do this, but in the Office 365 admin console, go to Groups (under users) --> Shared Mailboxes you can create a "Group" that way. I havent tested it, but I would assume if you leave the "Show in Global Address List" enabled, you might be able to use it for alerts. Let me know if this helps.

Thanks we have an Office Group created and configured the document library to send an alert to it, but nothing ever shows up in the groups mailbox or in the mailbox of the group members. I have a support ticket opened, but I'm wondering if this is even supposed to work.

Is the Group configured to accept emails from non-members?
