I think you got yourself stuck with Blocked vs Safe Sender thinking.
Undoing a Blocked Sender isn't making it a Safe Sender but making it a neutral sender again.

Someone who has Full Access permissions to the mailbox can do this in the following way;
- In Outlook when the Shared Mailbox is configured as an additional account.
- In Outlook on the Web when opening the mailbox via "Open another mailbox"
An Exchange admin can do this via the Set-MailboxJunkEmailConfiguration cmdlet.

Set-MailboxJunkEmailConfiguration "Support" -BlockedSendersAndDomains @{Remove="spamSMTPaddress"}
Addresses belonging to domains of your Exchange environment are considered Safe Senders by Outlook by default and therefore can't (and don't need to) be added.
