Right.  As this page says:

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/label-a-message-as-junk-or-not-junk-44d9bad9-c8e2-479f-8344-8549bb65019d

  Note: Clicking Not Junk or Mark as Not Junk does not instruct
  Outlook to classify similar messages as non-junk. To help prevent
  legitimate messages from reaching the junk folder, you can add a
  sender to your Outlook contacts or classify all messages from a
  sender's domain as non-junk. If you are on a mailing list, you can
  use Mailing List Manager to make sure that messages are handled by a
  mailing list rule and not classified as junk.
