The address is setup to forward to group members immediately, but it doesn't seem to be getting through in the first place.
Best Answer
Emails to the group email address are inserted as and considered "posts" into the group thread.
If people outside the organization need to be able to send emails, you'll need to grant public access to be able to post to the group
Go to Group Settings > General
Go to "Who can post" and set to "Anyone on the Web"
