Having no signature in reply Outlook 2011

Is this still impossible? Has anyone come up with a method so signatures aren't auto-inserted in replies every single time? Any help/feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Sure, you just don't assign a signature within the signature settings for that account.

Preferences -> Signatures -> Default Signatures...

set it to "None"

Now if the sig is being set within AD or on the server, you can't do anything about that from within Outlook.

Sorry I should have been more clear. I need a normal signature to be in place for new emails but don't want a signature in replies. I'm looking for a way or work around to remove it from replies but still have it in place for new emails started from outlook 2011.

Considering this feature isn't even built into Outlook for Mac at the moment, you'll be hard pressed finding a solution other than using a script. Your only option for scripting Outlook is AppleScript.

Something like this might be possible if you're not averse to using a different keyboard command for Reply (Command + r) or using a different menu item than Message > Reply. You could invoke an AppleScript to get the account of the current message and then open a new outgoing message using a similar (second) account that uses the signature you want.
