    Is there a remote mailbox on-prem that represents the Exchange Online user? If not, create it: https://blog.expta.com/2016/05/creating-remote-mailbox-in-exchange.html

      Hi @ ATFRMZ ， Are you referring to granting users in Exchange online Full Access and Send As permissions in an on-premises distribution group?

    In a hybrid environment, Microsoft 365 or Office 365  mailboxes can be granted full access and send on behalf  permission to on-premises shared mailboxes**.**

    I recommend that you could refer to the following command line to see if you can add it:

    Add-MailboxPermission -Identity <MailboxIdentity> -User <DelegateIdentity> -AccessRights FullAccess -InheritanceType All [-AutoMapping $false]

Set-Mailbox -Identity seanc@contoso.com -GrantSendOnBehalfTo hollyh

       

    For permissions in the hybrid environment, please refer to this link: Permissions in Exchange hybrid deployments | Microsoft Learn

     Hi @ ATFRMZ ，

    Sorry for the misunderstanding of this issue above. Here are some other suggestions I have for this issue:

    Please run this command on-prem to check if the remote mailbox exists:

    Get-RemoteMailbox -Identity user@contoso.com | Format-List

    If so, try referring to this command to add it in delivery management to see if it works:

    Set-DistributionGroup  -IgnoreNamingPolicy "True" -Identity "dg1" -AcceptMessagesOnlyFromSendersOrMembers ("user1")  -RequireSenderAuthenticationEnabled "False"
