Answer 2

Hi @Rising Flight ,

Do you want to use outlook built in feature to delete emails, you can use AutoArchive to do this automatically.

Go to File > Options > Advanced.
Under AutoArchive, click AutoArchive Settings.

For more information about the AutoArchive feature, see: AutoArchive settings explained
(Note: If you have multiple Exchange accounts in your Outlook profile and configure AutoArchive for one account, all other Exchange accounts will have the same settings applied automatically. )
