    @Glenn Maxwell

    The distribution group is a list which used to sent email in bulk. Microsoft 365 Groups is the foundational membership service that drives all teamwork across Microsoft 365. Their functions are completely different, they cannot be nested within each other.

    No, that's not a supported scenario. Technically, it can be achieved via PowerShell, but not all functionalities will work as expected. Wait until Microsoft officially announces support for nesting groups.
