Microsoft Office 365 Apple Mail Groups Work Around

Jan 25, 2018 I have Office365 /Exchange with my work so I have it set-up with my Apple Mail. Recently they added a Group for messaging. I just noticed I was completely missing all these messages becuase the Group does not show up on my Apple Mail. I checked with Outlook on an extra laptop pc I have and the groups section does show up there. Microsoft 365 Groups is a service that works with the Microsoft 365 tools you use already so you can collaborate with your teammates when writing documents, creating spreadsheets, working on project plans, scheduling meetings, or sending email.

Used when you want to send email to group of people without having to type each individual recipient's name, distribution groups (distribution lists) are organized by a particular discussion subject (such as 'Marketing') or by users who share common work that requires them to communicate frequently. They also provide a way for you to automatically forward email to multiple email addresses.

Distribution groups are sometimes called distribution lists.
