People,
I am using Hybrid OnPremise Exchange 2016 and Exchange Online, the Identity part is also using OnPremise AD DS synched to Azure AD using Azure AD Connect.
All mailboxes have been migrated to Exchange Online, hence the Exchange Server On-premise is just to perform the Remote mailbox enablement.
What are the differences and which one should I use to create synchronized (Hybrid) Email DLs?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
personally, I would always use the Exchange mgmt tools ( EAC or Powershell ) to manage and create all mail-enabled objects including distribution groups. It ensures that all the necessary attributes are populated. ( ShowInAddressBook, moderation, allowed senders etc...)
Cool, thanks @Andy David - MVP
Use the Exchange commands Distributiongroup if you want DLs. (New-DistributionGroup, Enable-distributiongroup etc..)
The ADGroup commands do not create mail-enabled objects.
Hi @Andy David - MVP , but you can specify the parameter GroupCategory: Distribution ?

Is this value will be accepted by the Exchange On-premise and then synched to AzureAD?
