Office 365

Create Office 365 Group

There are several Office 365 group types:

1- Office 365 groups: are used for collaboration between users, both inside and outside your company. With each Office 365 group, members get a group email and shared workspace for conversations, files, and calendar events, and a Planer.

2- Distribution Lists:
used for sending notifications to a list of people. They can receive external email if enabled by the administrator.

3- Security groups:
used for granting access to Office 365 resources, such as SharePoint

4- Mail-enabled security groups:
function the same as regular security groups, except that they cannot be dynamically managed through Azure Active Directory and cannot contain devices.

5- Shared mailboxes:
sed when multiple people need access to the same mailbox, such as a company information or support email address, reception desk, or other function that might be shared by multiple people.
