Outlook for Mac inserts signatures at the very end of an email chain
Hi community,
This seems to be a new issue caused by an Outlook for Mac update in recent months.
When reply to an email, the default signature is inserted to the very end of an email chain instead of the end of the reply one is about to draft (in other words, above the attribution "On <data>, <name> wrote ...").
I can currently work around this issue by enabling "when replying or forwarding, use the format of the original message" (under Settings -> Email -> Composing).
This seems to be a bug.

This is indeed a known bug in the latest versions of Outlook for Mac. When you reply to an email, the signature sometimes appears at the very bottom of the entire email chain instead of right below your new message. The workaround you found, enabling “When replying or forwarding, use the format of the original message”, is currently the best solution, as it forces Outlook to keep the proper layout. Microsoft is aware of the issue and is expected to release a fix in a future update. In the meantime, you can also send feedback directly through Help → Feedback in Outlook to help push this issue higher on their priority list.
