Just wondering if there is a way to disable users being to delete items in their inbox?

I would like to be able to be able to see all communications between the users, if a bullying incident was to occur

No Matthey,

The inbox is as the other places on Mahara, or on others ePortfolio management systems, an users' private place. So users can do whatever they want with their artefacts, pages and messages they receive in their inbox.

If you want more controlled features I advise you to link your ePortfolio with a VLE in which you can control users rights (such as on Moodle). It is the way we decided in my institution: everything that has to to be kept or is official is sent from our Moodle system. The ePortfolio is for informal communication, formative assessment; it is a users' place for them to engage with their learning and reflect upon it.
