Now Hotmail is Outlook, how do I add someone to my safe senders list?

I get a number of newsletters that are now defaulting to my junk mail folder.  But there doesn't seem to be a way to get them to automatically show up in my Inbox.

If this is true, there is a problem on the server side. Make sure the sender address of the message is, indeed, the address you added to the Safe Sender list. You can also put that sender in your Contacts. Either place should cause messages from that address to be ignored by the junk filter.

Rules work only on messages delivered to Inbox. They cannot work on messages delivered to other folders.
