Problem with accepting meeting invitations and disappearing messages in outlook

Hi,

I've recently started using outlook on an iPad and I'm having problems with messages that involve meeting invitations. Firstly, it seems like if I open one of these messages then it will instantly disappear from the inbox and go into the deleted items folder. Secondly, if I instead of double tapping on the message to open it carry on swiping past it until I get to the RSVP button and go in there to accept the meeting, this doesn't seem to change the status of that button in anyway. I mean even if I accept the invitation the RSVP button stays there and there is nothing to indicate anywhere in the inbox that I have already excepted it. I can understand the RSVP button staying there in case I want to change my mind about accepting it but it seems confusing that there is nothing indicating I have already excepted it. I think I have accidentally accepted the invitation a few times and it has sent emails a few times indicating this but I can't be sure.

The most annoying issue is the one about these messages disappearing as soon as I've read them. Has anyone any ideas what is going on?

I was having the same problem on my iPad outlook app
I went onto windows to actually see if there was an option, and there is in settings and option to delete email after accepting
I unchecked this box, and now they are not automatically deleting
