Outlook 2007: Disable Deleting of Meeting Request from Inbox When Responding

Contributor Icon Contributed by Rob Rogers  
Tag Icon Tagged: Microsoft Outlook  

By default, Outlook deletes a meeting request from your Inbox once you respond to the meeting request. While Outlook does add the meeting and its details to your Calendar, it is much easier to also have these details in your Inbox for easy reference. To keep your meeting requests from being deleted from your Inbox, follow these steps:


1. Click Tools and select Options.

2. On the Preferences tab, click the E-mail Options button.

3. Click the Advanced E-mail Options button.

4. In the When sending a message section, uncheck the Delete meeting request from Inbox when responding checkbox.

5. Click OK.

6. Click OK to close E-mail Options and again to close Options.

    Point 4 – it would be useful to highlight the word ‘uncheck’.

    I was sent an event by someone through Outlook and I no longer need it on my iphone; however, when I select the event the usual edit option is not there so I can’t delete it. How can I delete it? Thank you,
