Update (7/25/2018):
Thanks for all your feedback and sharing your concerns. Our mission is to help you be more productive at your work, and some users complained about their workflows being affected with this change.
Based on the feedback we've seen from our users on this post, we are working on making this option configurable for our users. We are adding a switch which can be toggled by the user to start receiving their sent emails to Groups back in their inbox.
The exact details on how this setting can be used and the timeline for this change will be communicated soon. Thanks for your patience.
This is a huge issue for us. Especially considering that both in Outlook and in the group options screen in the Exchange Admin Center there is an option to send to the Inbox. Is that just a useless checkbox? Considering that Office 365 groups are positioned as an "upgrade" to distribution lists I would think that removing functionality wouldn't come along with that. An example of where this will bit you is if you are using ActiveSync to connect to your account you cannot see the 365 groups nor would you receive a notification on your phone. If this is the way it is going to be I am going to be forced to revert all of my Office 365 groups to DL's.
