How do I mark a sender as safe?

I really like the new Outlook.com; I think it is a great improvement over the older Hotmail.com. But there's one thing about the old Hotmail.com that I miss, because no matter what I do or where I look, I cannot find how to duplicate the same functionality with Outlook.com. I have to check my Junk folder a lot, because many of the email newsletter I receive wind up there, and try as I might, I cannot find any way at all, of marking the email address those newsletters come from as being safe. Frankly, I hate this about Outlook.com! So, is there a way of marking an email address as being safe, when you're looking at the email? If so, how? If not, why not?
