Email Whitelisting & Junk Mail Settings

Despite our best efforts we cannot always guarantee that you will receive emails all the time. This is because email systems are constantly changing.

One thing you should do to help ensure that you do receive emails from us, is to add our sending domain @wsfac.org.nz to a "whitelist" (or list of trusted senders) within your email application or at your ISP. This means that when we send you an email it will automatically come into your inbox and not be flagged as Junk Mail.

Various email applications provide for this option in different ways. We provide below examples for Microsoft Outlook 2003 (PC) and Hotmail as guides to how to do this.


Outlook 2003

It's very easy to add the wsafc.org.nz domain to your safe senders list with Outlook 2003 (see picture below).
1. Select the message in your inbox and right-click
2. Choose "Junk Mail" from the drop-down menu
3. Choose "Add Sender's Domain (@example.com) to Safe Senders List

Hotmail

The very popular free web mail application Hotmail also allow for Junk Mail filtering to help prevent high levels of SPAM reaching its users. To add the wsafc.org.nz domain to your Hotmail account settings follow the instructions below.

1. Log in from the Hotmail homepage
2. Click on the Options link to the top right (near the Help link)
3. Choose Mail from the navigation on the left hand side
4. Click on Junk E-mail Protection.
5. Click on the Safe List link.
6. Type the wsafc.org.nz domain name in the field and click Add (note that the domain does not require any "www" prefix as this is only used to address websites).
7. Log out of Hotmail

Other web mail applications should have similar options to Hotmail. Check your web mail providers help documentation or contact them directly via email asking for assistance.

For more information on whitelisting or Safe Sender Lists please refer to your email application's help section or contact your ISP about whitelisting domains prior to delivery to your inbox.
