Windows 10: Microsoft Live (formerly Hotmail) safe senders and block senders doesn't work

First the safe senders. I added the domain "UPS.com" to the safe senders list, yet every email that comes in to inform me of the status of my deliveries from ups.com goes to my junk folder. I even added "*** Email address is removed for privacy ***" to the safe lists section. No joy. Everything from ups.com goes to my junk folder. What the heck is up with that? By the way, this issue is not unique to ups.com, and occurs in several other domains.


On the other hand, I have added the domains of several chronic spam engines to my blocked domains list, and yet they still show up in my inbox. Examples of these domains include "newsletters7-24.de" and "brixe.org.uk"


So why can't I successfully make safe the domains I want and block the domains I don't want in Microsoft Live?
