Why msgs filtered as junk despite contact being in >1 whitelists checked for an account?
When the junk filter runs on my email accounts after getting mail, some senders (including some I select in each account's junk filter menu options) (despite being listed in at least one of the whitelist books in my addresses ) seem to start getting tossed into my junk folder and marked as read. If I go into the junk folder for each account and notice one of these that I don't want gone and click ('Mark as not junk') it moves it back to inbox and marks it as unread. Then the same thing will happen with the next msg from the same sender.
One thing the junk filter seems to take great offense with is multiple msgs being sent within a certain amount of days from the same email address. Which would be fine except I'm paying for some lessons in everything from photography to status updates on num/type/location/works/comments from followers in multiple display areas.
Even if I add a filter that is marked with one specific address to run on before junk filtering, and I tell it either mark as not junk, or learn as not junk, or both neither one seems to save these communications. I would greatly appreciate some help with this one.

I rather suspect some external agency may be at work on your account. Several email providers also use the "Junk" folder for filing what they consider to be spam. Any external spam detector would be oblivious to your local white list.

That was indeed what most seemed to be causing the problem. MS Outlook was tagging msgs as junk that I had paid several hundred dollars for as part of a photography course.
I finally wrote a filter which checks for all email addresses in a new "Unjunk" address book (I included all of them from that photo company), and if it finds them in my Junk folder, marks them as not junk, and tosses them back up to my inbox.
