Adding/Editing/Deleting a Whitelist entry
A Whitelist is a list of email addresses or domains which you have designated as legitimate email contacts. Messages from these contacts will not be automatically blocked, and will be successfully delivered to your inbox.
To more effectively filter spam, use your Whitelist in conjunction with a Blacklist. A Blacklist is a list of specific email addresses or domains considered to be associated with spam. For more information on Blacklists, click here.
