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.

    check these instructions, I guess this will solve your problem. https://ut.service-now.com/sp?id=kb\_article&number=KB0012026

    Outlook usually sends meeting requests to the Deleted Items folder when you respond to a meeting request. To change this setting and keep your meeting requests:

    1. Click the File tab, then Options, and then select Mail.
    2. Under the Send messages heading, make sure the Delete meeting requests and notifications from Inbox after responding checkbox is not selected.
    3. Click the OK button to close the dialog box.

    Can you provide the instructions for automatically deleting responses when others accept or reject meeting invitations I send out?

    It doesn't work with the newest Outlook. I couldn't find the File tab.

    Under View -> Settings, there are options for updating many of the things that used to be under the File tab. But, not this one.

    This is for the "OLD" outlook - this question is specifically aimed at the "NEW" one...

    (unfortunately, it seems that at the moment there is not a way how to set this behavior - strange choice to omit this option..)
