I think I replied to this multiple times. Debian Backports archive
contains everything which has been backported. You don't want to
install everything from bpo, you only want to install selected
parts of it (eg samba).  For this reason, bpo archive has
"NotAutomatic" tags (see man apt_preferencs).  So when installing
something from bpo, you have to tell apt to install from bpo,
like this:

   apt install -t bullseye-backports samba

Once installed, it will keep everything updated from bpo automatically
(this is what "ButAutomaticUpgrades" tag is for, in the same manpage).
