How it works
- Select File > Options > Mail.
- Under Send Messages, clear the Suggest names to mention when I use the @ symbol in a message check box.
- Click OK.
Scenarios to try
After adjusting your settings, restart Outlook, type @ in an email, and notice that you no longer see suggestions for people to add.

This feature is available in Outlook for Windows to Insider Fast users on Version 2004 (Build 12718.20010) or later.
