The Junk Mail Protection feature cannot be trained like the Junk Mail filter
feature in Apple Mail. Microsoft determines what the filter will and will
not classify as junk mail. You have some level of control in that you can
add a message sender to the address book, add a sender's domain to the Safe
Domains list, or add a mailing list entry to protect good messages from
being classified as junk.

If you require more control over what is and what is not classified as junk,
you might want to look into SpamSieve. It adjusts filtering based on what
you classify and junk and not junk.
