How to Safelist Emails
First off, thank you for subscribing to my newsletter!
Below I have put together a little tutorial for how to safelist an email.
What’s an email safelist?
A safelist is essentially a list of people, companies or contacts you want to hear from—or a list of email addresses or domain names from which an email blocking program will allow messages to be received.
