Two years ago I was asink the same question (https://community.grommunio.com/d/584-mail-list-with-external-recepients)
In the meantime, Grommunio has made great progress and a customer has asked me to carry out another evaluation of mailing lists with internal and external recipients.
The positive result is that groups can be addressed easily using their email address and the received emails are distributed to the registered members - both externally and internally.
Unfortunately, some providers seem to be blocking outgoing emails due to a lack of compliance with RFC 5532 5322 (crpb). The Google mail servers, for example, refuse to deliver with error 550-5.7.1
An example can be seen here - from yesterday, recipient addresses are anonymized:

Now, Google is not the be-all and end-all, but it would be nice to be able to send emails from mailing lists to Gmail.
Does anyone have any ideas about this?
