Add Catholic Radio Association to your
Whitelist:
Outlook:
The junk mail
filter built into Microsoft Outlook, while unpretentious, is pretty capable and
often sufficient. It is not perfect, though, and a helping hand does not
hurt its performance.
One way you can help Outlook
achieve better spam filtering accuracy is by adding known senders to its
list of Safe Senders. This makes sure mail from these senders
always goes directly to your Outlook Inbox, no matter what the junk mail
algorithm might think.
You can also whitelist
complete domains using Safe Senders. After signing up for The
Catholic Radio Association newsletter, I have added
“catholicradioassociation.org" to the list, for example.
To add an address or domain
to Safe Senders in Outlook:
-
Select Actions | Junk E-mail | Junk E-mail Options... from
the menu in Outlook.
- Go
to the Safe Senders tab.
-
Click Add....
-
Type the email address or domain name you want to whitelist.
If you already have a message from the sender you
want to add to the Safe Senders list in your Outlook Inbox
(or the Junk E-mail folder, of course), the procedure is even
easier:
-
Open a message from the sender (or
a sender at the domain) you want to add to Safe Senders.
-
Select Actions | Junk E-mail and then
Add Sender to Safe Senders List or Add Sender's Domain “@catholicradioassociation.org”
to Safe Senders List.
Outlook 2003:
Add a name to your Safe
Senders or Safe Recipients List
You can add either the sender's e-mail address or their domain name to
the Safe Senders List.
On the Tools
menu, click Options.
On the Preferences tab, under E-mail,
click Junk E-mail.
Click the Safe Senders or Safe Recipients
tab.
Click Add.
In the "Enter an e-mail address or Internet domain name to be added to
the list" box, enter the name or address:
info@catholicradioassociation.org, then click OK.
Repeat steps 4 and 5 for each name or address that you want to add.

Others:
Many popular e-mail programs, including Outlook, Outlook
Express, Eudora, and Netscape Mail, don't provide a
convenient way for you to white-list the folks you want to receive
e-mail from. If you're using this sort of e-mail system and you either
aren't getting your Crossroads message from Dr. Marcellino D'Ambrosio or
want to make sure you continue to receive your Crossroads Initiative
Newsletter in the future, you can do something about it.
Contact the customer service
people or the Postmaster at the company that provides your e-mail or
Internet connection (your ISP). Explain to them that Crossroads
Initiative Newsletter is e-mail that you asked for and value. Ask them
if they can white-list Crossroads. They'll probably ask you for some
information about us. Here's what to tell them:
-
Sending Address:
If they ask for our address, give them the address in the "From"
line (info@catholicradioassociation.org).
-
Domain:
If they need to know the domain we're mailing from, tell them: @catholicradioassociation.org
-
IP Address:
If they ask for our sending IP address, tell them: 216.84.198.225
Notes:
If you want
your Contacts to be considered safe senders, select the
Also trust e-mail from my Contacts check box on the
Safe Senders tab. All e-mail addresses in your
Contacts folder will then be used by the Junk E-mail
Filter to evaluate messages.
If you want people who are
not necessarily in your Contacts but are people you
correspond with regularly to be considered safe senders, select the
Automatically add people I e-mail to the Safe
Senders List check box on the Safe Senders tab. By default, the
check box is selected. This check box is introduced with Microsoft
Office 2003 Service Pack 1. To get Service Pack 1, go to
Downloads on Office Online. Under
Office Update, click Check for Updates.
If Automatic Picture Download is turned off, messages
from or to e-mail addresses or domain names on the Safe Senders and
Safe Recipients Lists will be treated as exceptions and
the blocked content will be downloaded.
If you have existing lists of safe names and addresses, you can import
the information into Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 by saving the list
into a text (.txt) file with one entry per line, and then importing the
list.
To quickly add a sender,
domain name, or mailing list name to the Safe Senders
or Safe Recipients Lists, right-click the message you
consider safe, and then on the shortcut menu, point to Junk
E-mail, and then click Add Sender to
Safe Senders List, Add Sender's Domain (@catholicradioassociation.org)
to Safe Senders List, or Add Recipient
to Safe Recipients List.
If you are using
a Microsoft Exchange Server e-mail account, names and e-mail addresses
in the Global Address List (Global Address List: The address book that
contains all user, group, and distribution list e-mail addresses in your
organization. The administrator creates and maintains this address book.
It may also contain public folder e-mail addresses.) are automatically
considered safe.
If you are using an Exchange
Server e-mail account and working online, you must be using Microsoft
Exchange Server 2003 or later. If you do not know what version of
Exchange server your e-mail account is using, contact your Exchange
administrator.
Thank you
for taking the time to whitelist the Catholic Radio Association!
