Residents - Instructions for Whitelisting Emails

What is a Whitelist?

Whitelists are used frequently with e-mail applications to allow users to compile lists of senders they wish to receive e-mail from. This list overrides any blacklists and spam filters, and allows the e-mails to be delivered to the users inbox instead of filtered out as spam.

FRONTSTEPS recommends that Residents whitelist any emails that they may receive from your Community, to prevent the emails from getting lost in spam or junk email folders.

Whitelisting Emails in Gmail

  1. Open Gmail. In the upper-right corner, select the Settings (gear) icon. From the menu, choose Settings.
  2. Select Filters and Blocked Addresses.
  3. Select Create a new filter. If you already have many filters, you’ll have to scroll down to find this link.
  4. A dialog box appears. In the From field, type the email address you want to whitelist. Be sure to type the full email address, like example@yahoo.com. To whitelist every email address from a particular domain, type just that domain name, like @yahoo.com.
  5. At the bottom of the dialog box, select Create filter.
  6. On the next screen, tell Gmail what to do with the email address or domain you just indicated. To do so, select Never send it to Spam. To finish the process, select Create filter.
  7. If you want to whitelist more than one email address or domain, you need not repeat these steps for each one. Instead, put a vertical bar (and a space before and after it) between the separate accounts, as follows: person1@example.com | person2@anotherexample.com | @example2.com.


    Whitelisting Emails in Hotmail
  1. Open your mailbox and select Options (upper right-hand corner).
  2. Select the Junk E-Mail Protection link.
  3. Select the Safe List link.
  4. Copy and paste username@domain.com into the dialog box titled Type an address or domain.
  5. Click the Add button next to the dialog box.
  6. If the mailing is in your “Junk E-Mail Folder”, open the email and click the “Not Junk” button
  7. You should also check that the mailing’s email address is not in your Blocked Senders list.  You can find your Blocked Senders list by following the directions above and going to Blocked Senders List instead of Safe List.  If you see the email is from an address on this list, select it and click the Remove button
