    As JonAlfredSmith-5004 mentioned, you have to add AutoReplyState parameter and enable it to make sure the OOF is working. I test the command, and OOF works well for internal and external senders. Here are my test results.

    The command I used:

    When an internal user user01 sends message to that group, user01 can get OOF message:
    17057-527.png

    When I send to the group with my Gmail account, I can get the OOF message as well:

    You need to add the AutoReplyState parameter to specify whether the mailbox is enabled for Automatic Replies.

    Set-MailboxAutoReplyConfiguration -Identity unifiedgroup1@Company portal .com -AutoReplyState Enabled -InternalMessage "Hello,This group is not monitored," -ExternalMessage "Hello This group is not monitored"

    There's perhaps a typo after "not monitored", a comma.
