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.

    Who the hell thinks this a feature that people want on by default?

    Noone said anything about having it on by default, only to be able to have it available at all - especially since it used to be available.

    When meeting requests have useful information on them, they have no place in the recycle bin.

    Exactly. It stops me from emptying the recycling bin, meaning I have to spend time carefully checking before I do so. It wastes my time.

    Unbelievable that this has not been fixed, given it was reported last year. As plenty of other people have said, emails with invitations to meetings often contain the agenda, background docs & relevant info. It is ridiculous to have that binned without warning and to force users to go off to the recycle bin and fish it back out every time. Is anyone at Microsoft listening to users, and is anyone there willing to pull their finger out, or at least give an update?
