When you email [team@discourse.org](mailto:team@discourse.org), it actually creates a DM with Discourse on the meta forum. I’m looking for that same functionality as people are able to email our community team at a vanity company email address, but I’m really trying to stay out of outlook and in Discourse.
I did do a few searches, but I feel that I also may not know exactly what I’m supposed to be searching for on this one.

Check out [Configure direct-delivery incoming email for self-hosted sites with Mail-Receiver](https://meta.discourse.org/t/configure-direct-delivery-incoming-email-for-self-hosted-sites/49487). You can then have an address get delivered to a group or a category.

You’ll want to follow this guide: [Configuring incoming email to create new topics or group messages](https://meta.discourse.org/t/configure-incoming-email-to-create-new-topics-or-group-messages/62977)
