Desktop (Mac\/PC) Email Apps<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n Gmail<\/p>\r\n\r\n
There are three ways to whitelist emails using Gmail:<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\r\n - Gmail tabs<\/li>\r\n
- Marking an email as \u201cnot spam\u201d<\/li>\r\n
- Creating a filter<\/li>\r\n <\/ol>\r\n\r\n
If you\u2019re using Gmail tabs (Promotional and Social), click and drag the email you want to whitelist\r\n from the tab it\u2019s in to the Primary tab, like so:<\/p>\r\n\r\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/offerwave.org\/assets\/convert6.gif\")
\r\n <\/div>\r\n\r\n
Once done, you\u2019ll get an alert saying \u201cThis conversation has been moved to Primary. Do this for all\r\n future messages from sender@theirdomain.com?\u201d Click Yes.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n ![\"\"](\"https:\/\/offerwave.org\/assets\/convert.webp\")
\r\n <\/div>\r\n\r\n
If the email is already in your spam folder, mark it as \u201cnot spam\u201d. Open the email in your spam\r\n folder that you want to whitelist, then click Report not spam.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n ![\"\"](\"https:\/\/offerwave.org\/assets\/convert2.webp\")
<\/div>\r\n\r\n
Finally, if an email is already in your primary folder but you want to make sure all emails from this\r\n sender always end up there, you can create a filter. To do this, follow these steps:<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\r\n - Click the cog icon<\/span> in the top-right corner, and then\r\n Settings<\/span> from the drop-down menu.\r\n <\/li>\r\n
- Click the Filters tab then Create a new filter.<\/span><\/li>\r\n
- Enter the domain of the email you want to whitelist in the From<\/span> field.<\/li>\r\n
- Click Create filter with this search.<\/span><\/li>\r\n
- In the box titled When a message arrives that matches this search select Never send it to spam.<\/span><\/li>\r\n
- Click the Create filter<\/span> button.<\/li>\r\n <\/ol>\r\n\r\n

Whitelisting email addresses in other email providers<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Select the email from your inbox and look for the menu option and add to safe senders or whatever your email service calls them.<\/p>\r\n
Or,<\/p>\r\n
Check your spam or junk folder, select the email and select the option for \u2018not junk\u2019 or however the email service labels the option.<\/p>\r\n
This should ensure that emails from select senders will always end up in your inbox rather than spam.<\/p>\r\n
It\u2019s a reactive process that does require you to monitor your spam folder but it has been that way since email first arrived and is unlikely to change anytime soon!<\/p>\r\n
