Creating a distribution list
Create an email account that does not have a shared email inbox but receives and distributes all incoming mail to a static list of users' individual inboxes. You could also use an O365 group, but in some cases, you may not want the additional features or apps that come with that. In this recipe, you'll create a distribution list.
Getting ready
You'll need to be an Exchange admin, global admin, or have the Organization Management or Recipient Management roles to create distribution groups.
How to do it…
- Go to the classic Exchange admin center at https://outlook.office.com/ecp/.
- Choose groups from beneath the recipients header:

- Select Distribution list from the drop-down menu next to the New Office 365 group button:
