This is actually not a brand new feature. It has been around probably 4 months. However many people might not know about our new Whitelisting feature.
If you are taking advantage of the Website Forge anti-spam features you might occasionally find that some email you want to receive is getting tagged as spam.
A "White List" is a list of email address you can specify to ALWAYS get through.
Why do supposedly non-spam emails get caught in the spam filter? There are too many reasons to name. Usually the server the email originated from was once or currently determined to be a spam source. Many spam filters are made "aware" if it's IP address.
I can testify first hand that sometimes people put known good servers on blacklists. Don't get me started. I hate spam as much as the next guy -- but I would never falsely report spam.
People that are too lazy to unsubscribe themselves from an e-newsletter will just report that message as spam though they specifically asked for the message previously. Surprisingly, it happens all the time! Don't be "that guy" :)
So, to "Whitelist" an email go to your "Manage Email" area and look for a "White List" button. Enter any email address you'd like to get through there. Enjoy!
