prerequisitesAccess to Microsoft 365 portal/Microsoft Entra admin center with username: [email protected] and password: =1122334455667788

Explanation

The correct approach is to navigate to Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD) > Groups > Expiration settings, where you can configure the group lifetime to 180 days, enable automatic deletion of unrenewed groups, and designate Allan Deyoung as the notification contact for ownerless groups. This is the only admin center location that provides Group Expiration Policy settings, which automatically sends renewal notifications to group owners and handles deletion of expired groups. Setting the 'Email contact for groups with no owners' field to Allan Deyoung ensures he receives notifications for any groups that lack an assigned owner.
