How to add email to your safe sender list
IMPORTANT NOTE:
This is incredibly frustrating for everyone đ
Some email services like Gmail, Yahoo! Mail, and a few others, recently started blocking important emails!
Why should you care?
Well⌠A few of my readers who signed up for my free lessons, and more seriously, some who signed up for courses, could not receive important emails to get access to the courses and lessons.
Even when they wrote to me for help, and I urgently tried to reply, they never got any of my responses!
So now I strongly recommend you âwhitelistâ my email address (which is [email protected]).
Whitelisting just means putting my email address in a safe sender list of contacts so they no longer get blocked. A safe sender list is a list of emails that will always go directly to your inbox, so thereâs no risk that theyâll get lost in spam or blocked by your email service. And remember you can always unsubscribe from my emails any time you want, by clicking unsubscribe at the bottom of my newsletter emails.
Here are some guidelines depending on the email service you useâŚ
Note: if you cannot reach me by email, you can use the âcommentsâ section on my contacts page here.
