Office 365 email alias

I am in the process of setting up a client on O365, only 2 users. They currently have a "info@" email alias that will need to be sent to both parties. I have one of the user's already set up with that alias, easy enough. I understand that any specific alias (ie info@) can only be assigned to one user.

What is the best way to accomplish the goal without having to purchase an additioinal user license for that "info@" just to set up forwarding.

I tried playing with a re-direct rule, but it redirects everything...

Thanks!

Trefenwyd is correct...distribution list.

Here is a pretty good walk through for doing exactly what you are asking with a distribution list.

If you will be supporting O365 (or the latest version of Exchange for that matter) you will probably want to familiarize yourself with PowerShell and specific cmdlets. For example, you can create and manage distribution lists from PowerShell.
