How to Whitelist Email
Here are examples of how you can whitelist our address, WallpaperIllusions@wigglewigal.com in different email programs:
Mozilla Thunderbird
By default, Thunderbird will not mark these messages as junk if we are in your Address book. If you use Mozilla Thunderbird, you can check your settings at Tools > Junk Mail Controls:
To add us to your address book, you will need to create a New Address Book Card under File > New...
Yahoo Mail (Old Version)
If you use Yahoo, you'll need to create a filter to direct all messages from us to your inbox. To do this:
- Click on the Options link on the right side of the page.
- Click the Filters link that appears to the right.
- Click the Add link.
- To the right of the from contains line, enter our email address and click Add Filter.
Yahoo Mail (New Version)
If you use the new Yahoo Mail, then you should also create a filter.
Yahoo currently redirects you to the old Yahoo Mail interface to set up the filter, but in the future should integrate the Add Filter page directly into the new interface.
Hotmail
Hotmail uses a "Safe List" that you should add us to:
- Click the Options link on the right side of the interface.
- Choose Mail from the left side of the Options page.
- Click Junk E-Mail Protection.
- Click Safe List.
- Type the sender's email address into the box and click Add.
Windows Live Hotmail
Not surprisingly, Windows Live Hotmail works similarly to the old Hotmail:
- Click the Options link at right and choose More Options from the dropdown.
- Choose Allowed and Blocked Senders.
- Click Allowed Senders.
- Type the sender's email address and click Add to List.
GMail
GMail will automatically deliver mail from your Contacts list to the inbox.
To add a contact:
- Click the Contacts link at left.
- Near the top of the page click Create Contact.
- Enter the contact's name and email address, and click Save.
AOL Webmail
AOL has a "Custom Sender List" that you can specify.
However, to use the Custom Sender List, you must choose to accept mail ONLY from their custom senders, or to reject mail ONLY from their custom senders.
So, you need to make sure they are set to receive mail from All Senders:
- Click the Settings link at the top of the page.
- Choose Spam Controls from the options at left.
- Under Additional Spam Filters click Control From Whom I Get Email.
- A popup appears - choose the first option (Allow mail from all senders).
- Click the green Save button.
If you are already using a Custom Sender list to define who can mail you, then you'll want to make sure you put us on it.
