Messages from a Previous Sender, already in Contacts, still go to Junk

Both Previous Senders and Contacts are both set to be exempt from Junk filtering in Mail settings, but messages from one particular sender who meets both these criteria are still repeatedly sent to Junk.


I have tried to search for this problem, but have not found exactly this combination. If there is an existing thread, I would be happy to be directed to it.


Mac Mini M2 Pro, Ventura 13.4.1 (22F82), Mail Version 16.0 (3731.600.7)


(And why in the world is there no topic category for Apple Mail?!)

Wondering if the messages are deemed "junk" by your eMail Provider, before they reach the "Mail" app.

You may want to log-in to your eMail provider's website online to check the settings that are in place there.

You may want to send feedback to Apple. They will likely not reply, yet your feedback will reach those who work behind-the-scenes, and can make changes.

Web-form for feedback:

Seems we would need iOS Mail, Mac Mail, iPadOS Mail, WatchOS Mail ... to prevent confusion?

There is a Mail User Guide for Mac available: Mail User Guide for Mac - Apple Support

and

Mail Support Website : (info. / support / contact)

Mail - Official Apple Support


All the best :-)
