Allow Sub-Folder creation Office 365 groups
We currently have a number of public folders ( I believe 1 for each study that is active) which is a bunch... Discussions have been had around Groups is a great place for public folder data... I would disagree unless..
1. allow to create sub folders
2. allow to flag or assign categories
These two are huge for us and the long term exchange online strategy, we would love to see (and I'm sure others would to) functionality much like a shared mailbox be incorporated into Groups.
Heath Herdsame here. to migrate from public folders i need subgroups or any classification for email. a shared mailbox can do subfolders, but would get to 100 gb limit fast. (user box + shared box use same ost)
It's a common ask, sadly none of the clients that work with Groups exposes any additional folders. Even though the folders exists inside the group mailbox and you can access them via EWS or even create new ones. And there seem to be no plans to add support for such, at least not in the immediate future. Groups are definitely not a solution for every scenario, and it will be nice if the documentation/marketing materials are updated to better reflect on that reality...
