How To White List Emails
To make sure you don't ever miss
an important message from us, please follow the instructions according
to your type of email account.
POP3
If you download POP3 email:
Make sure email from trafficflare.net
goes to your inbox or designated
folder
YAHOO
To ensure your email alerts are
delivered to your Yahoo inbox (not the Bulk Mail or Junk
Mail folder), you can instruct Yahoo to filter it to
your inbox. Here's how:
1. Open your Yahoo mailbox
2. Click Mail Options
3. Click filters
4. Next, click add filter
5. In the top row, labeled From
Header: make sure contains is selected in the pull-down menu.
6. Click in the text box next to
that pull-down menu, then enter the address in the From line of
our most recent email alert. (Please select the email address
from the list provided).
7. At the bottom, where it says
Move the message to: select Inbox from the pull-down menu.
8. Click the Add Filter button again.
GMAIL
If you're using Google's gmail for
e-mail, here's how to ensure you always get our messages:
Open the latest issue of the e-mail
you want to whitelist.
- Click the More Options
link. It's on the title line of the e-mail, over on the right,
next to the date. (If you see "Hide Options"
instead, then you already have the extra options visible and
can just skip this step.)
- When the extra options are visible
(just below the subject line), click the Add sender
to contacts list link.
- Alternatively, you can just send
an e-mail to simon@trafficflare.net
and that will add the address to your Contacts list
automatically. Even if the e-mail you send doesn't get through
(for whatever reason), the act of sending it does the job of
putting the address into your Contacts list--and that's what
counts.
If one of our emails has been filtered
into the Spam folder, you can prevent that ever happening again:
Click on the Spam
link to open your Spam folder.
Click on the wrongly filtered e-mail to open it.
Click the Not Spam button at the top of the e-mail
(right next to "Delete Forever").

always accept even if the domain is blocked",
enter the address simon@trafficflare.net
HOTMAIL

ensure that your email alerts are delivered to your Inbox by adding
our "From" address to your Safe List. Here's how:

the job of putting the address into your "People
I Know" list--and that's what counts.
Extra note about AOL
AOL has a very aggressive filtration
system in place to block SPAM from filling your inbox. Unfortunately,
even if you requested to receive email from us, it can get blocked
out by AOL's spam filters.
**Add our email address to your
approved list
**Additionally, AOL's new SPAM controls
will recognize what kinds of email you consistently delete and
in about a week will automatically delete these emails from your
inbox. For example, if you do not open our Email for about a week,
AOL will automatically block you from receiving any additional
messages from our address/domain.
We recommend that you open each
Email update at the first convenient time when it arrives in your
inbox.
If you are not receiving the messages,
we recommend that you contact AOL and request they unblock our
email so you may
continue receiving our newsletter.
Note
if you use services like spam arrest!
A lot of times, you should only
use services like spam arrest only if you do not subscribe
to online services, i.e. you only receive a few non-commercial
emails from friends.
If you use such services, be
sure to add our email address to your whitelist.
Most of these services will have a way for you to do so
In spam arrest you go to "Senders"
then Add email address". Add simon@trafficflare.net
to authorize it.
We may not always be able to confirm
delivery requests from such services.
