Personal Microsoft Teams account feature rolls out; Know how to use
Microsoft Teams users will now be able to chat with their team members using a personal Teams account.
Microsoft Teams has introduced a new feature that allows users to chat with team members outside of their organization, even using a personal MS Teams account. This feature can be used by inviting any MS Team user to chat by entering their full email address or phone number and starting a one-on-one conversation. In addition, a group of people can also be invited to a group chat using the same process with this Microsoft Teams personal account feature.

3. Once the person accepts the invitation, you can start a new group or 1:1 chat or add them to an existing external group chat. This chat thread will appear with your other chats, and you won't need to switch to a tenant account.

5. You can also block messages from external users or leave a group chat.
