Unable to change primary SMTP of a group
I have a 365 group linked to Teams, with the primary SMTP address of mailto:HumanResources@(domain) I have been trying to change that by promoting an alias (PTmailto:onTeams@(domain)) to be the new primary. Every time I do this, it reverts to the original HumanResources address. A bit of searching suggested I try checking the primary address with the Get-UnifiedGroup powershell command, then setting it with Set-UnifiedGroup. Unfortunately, Get-UnifiedGroup shows that the primary SMTP is the desired PTonTeams address. It just isn't showing as such on the Exchange admin page. If I look up that same group in Azure, it also shows that it has the original address set as Primary SMTP. Can anyone shed some light on what might be going on and help me change this email address? Thank you!

I upgraded a DL to a 365 Group. Can I create and link a SharePoint site?
As above, I upgraded one of our existing Distribution Lists to a Microsoft 365 group. Everything appears to have worked correctly, but there's no SharePoint site that would be created automatically when creating a group from scratch. Is there a way to create a new SharePoint site and link it to the existing group? I know I could make a classic site then link it to a New group, essentially I want to do that but link it to the newly created group.
'Sender Restrictions' for Office 365 Groups
In our company, as part of our move from Exchange on-prem to Exchange Online, we are considering replacing our current Exchange Distribution Lists with Dynamic Office 365 Groups. Many of these top-level Exchange Distribution Lists have Sender Restrictions imposed in order to limit who can send an email to the DL membership. For example, only certain users can send an email to a Distribution List that contains several thousand staff. We are unsure as to whether Dynamic Office 365 Groups can provide similar functionality. From what I have read, any members of a Dynamic Office 365 Group have the ability to send an email to the entire group membership. There does not appear to be any way to limit this ability. Is this correct ?
