So that I don't ask the exact same question again, is there a way to update this? Outlook365 on the web has completely different settings in 2020. What's the proper Stack Exchange protocol for extremely old questions and the hot mess of Versions that make up MS Office?

Use a mail processing rule intervene. When they come in and before the deletion, try to save/archive/mark as read-only, make a copy/log a record.

Power Automate to similarly take an action and make a record before the original is processed and deleted?

Maybe you can try > Settings > View all Outlook settings > Calendar > Events and invitations > Delete invitations and responses that have been updated.

    Thanks. Unfortunately, that is already unchecked and it still deletes them. Commented May 6, 2020 at 15:41
