Disable auto-delete of accepted meeting invites in the *new" Outlook?

The existing Outlook app for Windows has a setting to prevent calendar invites from being automatically sent to Deleted Items* when you accept them. Is this setting available in New Outlook?

Microsoft just announced that starting in 2024, the new Outlook will be the "official" one. I'm really concerned that features like this may be ignored when trying to reach feature parity. So, Is there an official feature request page for this? They exist for other Microsoft products I use, but I didn't find one dedicated to the New Outlook.

Thanks for your help with these topics!

*Deleted Items is the wrong choice even if I wanted this! Archive would be the smarter location for a modern email didn't. (But the best thing would be too simply not do actions the user didn't request!) Thanks again.

    I was JUST looking for a solution cause we have had the same problem. But it does seem they have finally added the feature.

    It's found under the Settings, the gear icon near your profile. Calendar > Events and Invitations > Invitations for other people. Uncheck all the boxes and click "Save". This seemed to have resolved it for us.

    That answer works for the Outlook client. I already know this.

    My issue is with Office Outlook web based. There does not seem to have this option.

    @ScottShulte nailed it. The option to remove from web-based outlook is not there and needs to be. For business accounting we need to retain the meeting invite after it has been accepted without going through extra steps. If it available in the client app why not in the web based version.

    If that still existed do you think there would be this many pages of people discussing and anger at Microsoft failure to address the problem? There is not even a settings anymore its now options and none of what you typed is available in it.
