For Outlook on Mac, how to stop signature automatically being added to calendar events

This never used to happen, but recently when I create a new calendar event, or edit an existing event, my email signature is automatically added to the notes of the event.

I go to Signatures to try to adjust but the only options I can choose is New Message or Replies, no options for New Calendar Events. There is no distinction or selection I can choose for New Calendar Events. I can choose no signatures for New Message and that will stop the signatures to my calendar events, but then that also stops my signatures on actual emails, which I do need so that's not a solution. Is there a way to separate the signatures from New Messages vs. New Calendar Events?

This is extremely frustrating and it just started happening about a week or so ago.

    You're not alone—many Outlook for Mac users (including myself) have recently reported that their email signature is being automatically inserted into calendar events, and unfortunately, there is currently no built-in setting to disable this behavior independently from email signature settings.

    As of July 2025, Microsoft has not yet released a fix or toggle for this behavior in Outlook for Mac

    It’s being tracked as a known issue, and users are encouraged to report it to help prioritize a fix.
