We have the online (cloud) version of 365, we are paying user licenses, so it's not a free version. ~I am pretty new in 365 and sharepoint. What I want to do is allow my team to collaborate documents in sharepoint. Basically, if a document needs to be edited, I want the person to be able to share it via email which comes up as a link on the recipients email. When opened, it takes the person into sharepoint where the document can be edited and saved and the sender can be notified that the document has been edited. Also, he can view a history of the document. Seems pretty basic, but my emails will not connect which means that I cannot send anything to outlook or set up workflows (would this be the reason I cannot set this up?). I can get gmail to connect on the 365 exchange (I do have full exchange administrator rights).
Would it be something with our work servers perhaps? Is there anyway to enable this function? Without connecting emails, is the above collaboration virtually impossible? Please help out here - getting desperate!!! We have 30 new licenses and can't use the functions! All eyes are on me as the administrator!
