How to make sure important emails never get sent to spam

Email Address Whitelisting

Introduction

“Email Whitelisting” is a term used to describe the act of allowing an email to reach your inbox. This can be helpful if you want to make sure a sender doesn’t go to your Spam folder. These days, whitelisting is typically accomplished by adding the sender to your contact list in whatever email client you are using (there a few exceptions of course).
