First of all, thank you for subscribing!
I’m so grateful to have you around the community. đ
So now, letâs talk about email whitelisting.
More and more often these days different email providers are using programs to block unwanted email, often referred to as âspamâ.
Sometimes, however, these programs block email you want to get.
To be sure you receive emails from me, follow these quick tutorialsâŚ
Make sure you add my email address to your email whitelist to ensure the best chance of seeing my messages.
Whatâs a Whitelist?
A whitelist is essentially a list of people, companies or contacts you want to hear fromâor a list of email addresses or domain names from which an email blocking program will allow messages to be received.
Why is this important?
Unsolicited, unwanted advertising email, commonly known as âspamâ, has become a big problem.
Itâs reached such proportions that most email services and Internet Service Providers (ISPs) have put some sort of blocking or filtering system in placeâregardless of whether or not you want to hear from that person.
Fortunately there is something you can do about it!
You can whitelist!
Now obviously every email service is differentâŚ
Below are instructions for some of the more popular ones.
If yours isnât here, please contact your ISPâs customer service team and ask for their instructions.
Gmail:
In your inbox, locate an email from asa@amystarrallen.com â like the welcome email you just received from me!
Drag this email to the âprimaryâ tab of your inbox.
Youâll see that my emails will go to your primary folder in the future!
