When I go the route below, I am none the wiser. I don't believe I have ever seen this "trusted sender icon", and I think it would be great if it works as advertised. Even emails from Microsoft Answers do not show as "trusted sender", even though I have this in my safe senders list. Or are safe senders not the same as trusted senders?

4. Look for the trusted sender icon
The trusted sender icon lets you know that a message is from a legitimate sender that Outlook.com has verified, like your bank or the Outlook team. If you see the trusted sender icon, that email is safe to open.
