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.

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.
