How To Turn “Reply-All” On Or Off In Outlook.com

Outlook.com provides two options for a default “reply-all” response – on or off.

When reply-all is enabled as a default response, any email message that is replied to will automatically include the sender as well as other email addresses from the original email.

So, when replying to any email, if “Reply All” is visible, then this means it is set as a default response.

Happy emailing.
