UPDATE: SharePoint Online team sites + Office 365 Groups moving beyond First Release
Getting this error. How do I access Office 365 Groups from Sharepoint? It doesn't seem to be an app.
Sorry, something went wrong
New Site Mailboxes can no longer be created in SharePoint Online. Consider using Office 365 Groups to connect a team site with an email conversation.

MicrosoftHi Sloane - can you tell us more about where you are seeing that error? What are you trying to do? Create a new site (with a group) from SharePoint? The error you are describing is related to the Site Mailbox feature and not Office 365 Groups.
I created a new private sharepoint site through office365, and I am trying to create a private mailbox (like on my other team and private sites) where only site members can access the mailbox.
I'm trying to create a new MAILBOX on a site's group, so all members can simply log into the site to view the emails.

From where did you create the site? Is Office 365 Group creation enabled in your environment? And do you know if in SharePoint you have group-connected sites as the default type of site that gets provisioned?
ssquires as FYI.
I created the site via Sharepoint online portal. It is labeled a "Private group". Group creation is enabled, we have been able to create groups in the past with a unique email attached to them.
I got an email after creating it containing this:
<Group Name>
Private group 2 Members
Welcome to the <Group Name group.
<Group Name>'s sharepoint site
