This behavior is observed when a 3rd party software is involved. Check for any archiving, AV, antispam software that is running on the client machine.
Run "Outlook /safe" or perform a clean boot of the machine

Do they use a smartphone? I have seen issues like this when user use a smart phone and dont see the relationship between the two.
What happens if they ONLY use OWA and have NO outlook clients open anywhere?
Have you done an OUTLOOK.EXE /CLEANRULES ?
WARNING.
That will delete ALL rules, both client and server side for the user.

I thought it was activesync causing the issue, so I removed any connections. I also ran OUTLOOK.EXE /CLEANRULES as well as testing in OWA.
In the end I created a new mailbox and the deletions starting kicking in after a few minutes.

It was a new mailbox.
I have now disabled POP and IMAP for this account within Exchange and the messages are staying in the Inbox (for the moment!)

Can you compare the calender setting with some other account. I faced same issue some time back and someone by mistake converted it into a room mailbox, later i change it to user mailbox type, however still mails were moving to deleted item, later i compared with another account and found a calendar setting was incorrectly enabled.

Can you define New Mailbox? Have you just created a NEW USER with a NEW Mailbox and had the same results?

Same user account (AD 2008), disconnected and deleted mailbox (archived everything to PST first) and then from within Exchange created a new mailbox for the existing user account.
