How whitelist gmail

Whitelisting Gmail involves adding Gmail's IP addresses and domains to your email provider's or spam filter's whitelist. This allows emails from Gmail to bypass spam filters and reach your inbox more reliably. Here's a step-by-step guide to whitelist Gmail:

Method 1: Whitelist Gmail's IP addresses

  1. Check your email provider's documentation or contact their support team to find out how to whitelist IP addresses.
  2. Add the following Gmail IP addresses to your whitelist:
    • 74.125.24.0/24
    • 74.125.25.0/24
    • 74.125.26.0/24
    • 74.125.27.0/24
    • 216.58.192.0/19
    • 216.58.208.0/20
  3. You may need to add these IP addresses in a specific format, such as a CIDR block (e.g., 74.125.24.0/24) or a range of IP addresses (e.g., 74.125.24.0-74.125.27.255).

Method 2: Whitelist Gmail's domains

  1. Check your email provider's documentation or contact their support team to find out how to whitelist domains.
  2. Add the following Gmail domains to your whitelist:
    • mail.google.com
    • googlemail.com
    • gapps.google.com
    • apps.google.com
  3. You may need to add these domains in a specific format, such as a wildcard domain (e.g., *.google.com) or a specific subdomain (e.g., mail.google.com).

Method 3: Whitelist Gmail's SPF records

  1. Check your email provider's documentation or contact their support team to find out how to set up SPF (Sender Policy Framework) records.
  2. Add the following SPF records to your DNS settings:
    • v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com ~all
  3. This will help prevent spam filters from flagging emails from Gmail as spam.
