so in simple terms, exporting to pst file in the only method to backup O365 emails.
we are exploring what way to backup users emails if they resign suddenly and try something funny by deleting all their emails in their mailbox

Exporting to PSTs is hardly a backup as well, and can get you intro trouble especially if you need to meet compliance requirements. Use the hold functionality as already mentioned above. For "leavers", you can simply use the Inactive mailboxes functionality, which is free: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office365/securitycompliance/create-and-manage-inactive-mailboxes
