Reply and Delete option in Web Outlook?
In the desktop version of Outlook, you can select "Reply and Delete" option from Quick Steps. How can I replicate this in the Web Outlook version?

I found the solution in Outlook for the Web. You must enable "Delete invitation and responses that have been updated".
- Navigate to Calendar
- Settings Icon | View All Settings
- Choose: Calendar | Events and Invitations
- Under Invitations from other people, add a checkmark by
- Delete invitation and responses that have been updated
- Optional: Delete notifications about forwarded events.
Once you respond to the original email, the email is deleted and your response is saved in the Sent Folder.
I tested and confirmed.

Thanks for looking into this, but I this does not help with emails.

How can I replicate this in the Web Outlook version? It does not impact the Calendar. - Victor_IvanidzeJul 29, 2021Bronze Contributor
Hi Teresa_Cyrus,
unfortunately your suggestion just doesn't work for emails.
It looks logical as you have mentioned the options for Calendar.
Did you try to reply to an email in Inbox?
- Teresa_CyrusAug 03, 2021MVPVictor, she did not mention email or calendar event. So I provided at least one alternative method that MS offers.
- Victor_IvanidzeAug 03, 2021Bronze ContributorTeresa, she said '"Reply and Delete" option from Quick Steps'. That's enough to understand she means the emails.
