Email whitelist in outlook
In Outlook, an email whitelist is a list of email addresses or domains that you trust and want to allow to send you emails without being flagged as spam or junk. Here's how to manage your email whitelist in Outlook:
Method 1: Add an email address to the Safe Senders list
- Open Outlook and go to the "Home" tab.
- Click on the "Junk" button in the "Move" group.
- Select "Junk E-mail Options" from the dropdown menu.
- In the "Junk E-mail Options" window, click on the "Safe Senders" tab.
- Click on "Add" and enter the email address you want to whitelist.
- Click "OK" to save the changes.
Method 2: Add a domain to the Safe Senders list
- Open Outlook and go to the "Home" tab.
- Click on the "Junk" button in the "Move" group.
- Select "Junk E-mail Options" from the dropdown menu.
- In the "Junk E-mail Options" window, click on the "Safe Senders" tab.
- Click on "Add" and enter the domain name (e.g., @example.com) you want to whitelist.
- Click "OK" to save the changes.
Method 3: Add an email address to the Contacts list
- Open Outlook and go to the "People" tab.
- Click on "New Contact" and enter the email address you want to whitelist.
- Click "Save & Close" to save the contact.
Tips:
- You can also add email addresses to the Safe Senders list by dragging and dropping them from the "Junk" folder to the "Safe Senders" list.
- If you're using Outlook.com, you can also add email addresses to the Safe Senders list by going to the "Settings" icon (gear icon) > "View all Outlook settings" > "Mail" > "Junk email".
- Keep in mind that whitelisting an email address or domain does not guarantee that emails from that address or domain will not be flagged as spam or junk. However, it can help reduce the likelihood of legitimate emails being misclassified.
