Spun from this:

Allow external email address to send mail to DL - Microsoft Community

Are these options in the new EAC, now that those options have been fully migrated? We run on-prem AD and the Distribution List does not have a "Settings" tab in the new EAC:

    Hi @CCSTek

    Is this group synced from on-premises?

    If yes, please follow the suggestions of this message to edit the settings in on-premises Exchange:

    You can only manage this group in your on-premises environment. Use 'Active directory users & groups' or 'Exchange Admin Center' tools to edit or delete this group.

    Hi there, Thank you for your time!

    Yes, the Distribution List is sync'd from the on-prem AD.

    I'm looking for what needs to be changed/set in the on-prem object to allow external contacts to be able to email this internal Distribution List.
