Hello,

You should try these steps to disable automatic replies in MS Outlook.

Go to Mail >> Options >> Organize E-Mail >> Automatic Replies >> Select Dont send automatic replies option.

Hi Jeff,

Based on your description, did you get the yellow bar as shown in the following figure?

As far as I know, there is no way to hide it, this bar is used to remind you have turned on this option. The X should turn it off for the current session.  Switching data files will turn it back on.

I suggest you open a second window to work with another account as a workaround.

Hope it's helpful.

Not a helpful reply, Clark. My question is how to keep the alert hidden when Automatic Replies are on. The scenario here is that I have auto replies intentionally turned on but I'm still using email, and I don't want to be constantly reminded that auto replies are on.

Emi, using a second window seems like a good idea to prevent the annoying reminder. Thx for the idea.

This option is not available, You cannot change this through registry.
