emails from same company classified as junk
You mentioned that emails from a certain colleague are marked as spam. Is that colleague from outside your tenant? If so, check that their SPF record is correctly defined. Easiest way is to use nslookup from command prompt.
nslookup -q=TXT <domain>
If you don't get response similar to below (there might be ip addresses and include entries), you should inform the sending party.
"v=spf1 include:spf.protection.outlook.com -all"
You could also check the mail headers by copying them from Outlook (open message, File -> Properties -> Internet headers) and pasting them to Message Analyzer at http://aka.ms/exrca
how do i interpret the message analyzer results?
what do i look out for?
actually we found a simple solution to the issue by changing the display name of the sender.
the sender display name is currently SHI NI, when we changed to NG SHI Ni, the emails does not goes to junk folder but the user insist on using SHI NI as her display name.

You should compare Message Analyzer results with a non-spam message to find differences what could be reason for marking it spam.
If changing the name works, maybe the name is always marked as spam by Microsoft. What if SHI NI sends email to someone else?
