The benefits of email safelisting: Why is important to do it?
Can’t find important emails in your inbox? The spam filters of the majority of email and internet service providers might have a fault. As excellent, this tool might be, mistakes can be made and the emails you want to receive get blocked or sent to spam.
Digging through spam folders might be annoying, so why not let your email provider know you trust that email address? The solution is safelisting, also known as allowlisting.
Safelisting an email address is simply adding them to your safe sender list. This keeps your favorite emails out of the spam/junk folder. It’s a quick, one-time-only task to ensure you never miss an important email.
