    I dont think we have a direct option to automatically archives the email in Outlook Side.
     
    From PA, you can use Move Email to move the email to Archive Folder.

    What’s your definition of archive? If you just need make sure the e-mail is no longer in your inbox after replying, you can simply delete it or move it manually to the Archive folder as mentioned below. If you delete an e-mail, it will probably still be retained based on your company’s retention policies. Depending on your definition of archive, you may want to reach out to your IT department to see what retention policies have been set up to preserve e-mails.
     
    Here is more information that describes what your company may already have set up: Assign and view retention policies on email messages - Microsoft Support

    Have a look at this freeware: https://ivasoft.com/archiveemailsflow.shtml
    You can use it as a base and modify.
