Step 4

Click the No Reply All and/or the No Forward button to enable the features. They’ll be lit up and depressed when activated—that is, when replying all and/or forwarding are disabled.

Step 5

Send the email as normal. Now, when your recipients open up the message, the Reply All and/or Forward buttons will be greyed out. (If they ask, “Hey, how’d you do that?” send them here.)

  1. Of course the only REAL way truly to disable Reply to All and Forward is to use IRM (Intellectual Rights Management) in Outlook 2003/7. However, this technique was useful to a lot of people as it is super simple and can stop those "knee-jerk" Reply to Alls.
