Key notes
A recipient can react to an email in several ways, including the Reply All option. However, not everybody uses this option, and many wonder how to turn off Reply All in Outlook.
Using this feature you can send a message to the original sender and other recipients on the To and Cc lines. This isn’t something that users always want, so many choose to disable it.

Why does Outlook keep adding my email to Reply All?
Sending out emails to recipients without designing a form and sending the emails issuing the form definition allows them to determine how to react.
The Design Form option in Outlook limits the sender’s options for how to react to the mail. Some are; reply, reply all, print, forward, or attach the message to another message.
However, Outlook doesn’t categorically keep adding your email to Reply All; the recipient does. It is because you haven’t specified the limit to the reaction options the email is exposed to. So, they can select the Reply All option on the message to add their email to the category.
Fortunately, users can decide how many options recipients can access when reacting to their emails. It helps prevent email recipients from selecting Reply All on your email.
