How do I TURN OFF the "Summary by Copilot banner that appears on every single email I receive in outlook?
I may, maybe once a year when tagged into a super long email thread try to get a summary... but 99.99% of the time I will never want to use this, as such the banner is annoying and consumes lots of valuable space where I could render my email.
How can I turn this off? or hide it by default?

I have tried to sign in to the 365 admin center, but it says I cant sign in with a personal account. I can only sign in with a school or organization account. I am neither. How do I get around this so I can remove from all 365 apps? Thank you.
Working off a small laptop screen already, the copilot summary feature occupies space that I would rather want to use for seeing the actual email. Looking through all the replies, seems like the majority agrees and does not use this feature. It's been 6 month since this question was asked...is there any update to this Microsoft??? Any version updates? Anyone considering all this feedback over there????
In my case, I have dedicated "Microsoft 365 Copilot" license active with all license features enabled by default.
I was able to "take it away" by unselecting "Microsoft 365 Copilot in Productivity Apps" license.
It may affect other app, not only Outlook (in my case I was focusing on OWA) - I don't really use it anyway.
Yes, tis an issue in that case. Problem there is MS is unlikely to listen, if they think it is needed you are going to get it no matter your preference.
As a side note, I have since found the Windows Mail app is also being discontinued, and you are forced to use Outlook. So that too has been removed from my system.
So I am now using Thunderbird again - I gotta say, it is real nice to be free of the fluff in Outlook.
Thanks for the push in the right direction MS - appreciated.
Great idea, but not an option in a managed corporate environment where other email clients are not allowed. Many users only have Outlook web client as an option, others use desktop thick clients on Windows and Mac.
