o365 Group mailboxes sharing personal emails
OK, how about creating a Channel in the Team called Emails. Right click the channel and choose Get Email Address. You can copy the email address for the channel and issue it to anyone who needs to use it. They could then be encouraged to use this email address to communicate in relation to the project, or at the very least add the channel email address into the CC field of every email relating to the project.
Would something like that work? Or what may be even easier would be to encourage the use of the Teams channel for communications for this project instead of email. If anyone wanted the content from the Teams chat in their email, they could use the Share to Outlook option.
- I definitely like the idea of migrating to teams chat and for certain projects that might work but insisting that all collaborators use teams for communications is just not viable. A lot of emails will be to new contacts. We're a small architecture firm so many parties are involved. Including the group email in correspondence is also a good idea but again, we can't make it a policy for external collaborators to cc in the project email really. So any correspondence that doesn't have that address in it will need to be moved over and we have the same issue.
Yeah I hear you. Interesting challenge. I will give it some further thought and hopefully some fellow fine community members may have some other ideas in the meantime for you!
