I have rules set up in outlook to forward into per sub-category inbound email address on discourse.

The solution for me was to change “forward emails behaviour” setting in “All site settings” from “create_replies” to “hide”

This kept the same staged user, prevented the “forwarded” banner, improves parse of email, doesn’t strip whom sent the email and when, and only hides (“details-off”) downstream replies when useful in this scenario.
