How To Safe List Emails

How To Safe List EmailsMaya Eid2020-06-13T15:15:08-04:00
How to keep emails that you want to receive out of your spam folder 

With the rise in unsolicited and malicious email, stronger spam filters attempt to weed out as much unwanted email as possible by placing them in a spam or junk email folder. This leaves your inbox with hopefully, just legitimate emails to read.

Occasionally, legitimate messages end up being marked as spam, sometimes because the text contains ‘flagged’ words and phrases, the domain has sent mass emails previously, or possibly due to their domain being hacked and used to send a flood of spam email.

To ensure legitimate emails are delivered safely to your inbox and don’t end up in the spam folder, senders’ email addresses can be added to your ‘Approved’ or ‘Safe Sender’ list.

Below are instructions detailing how to approve email addresses for several of the popular email programs.
