Unsolicited, unwanted advertising e-mail, commonly known as “spam,” has become a big problem. It’s reached such proportions that most e-mail services and Internet Service Providers (ISPs) have put some sort of blocking or filtering system in place or begun relying on self-proclaimed blacklists to tell the good guys from the bad.

We applaud their intention to protect you from spam, but everyone agrees that the current systems for stopping spam are far from a perfect solution. They too often block e-mail that you’ve requested, but that fits somebody’s idea of what spam looks like. The more responsible anti-spam companies and activists are working hard to cut down on these “false positives,” but in the mean time, you might unexpectedly find you’re not getting the e-mails you subscribed to…As it happens, there’s something you can do to keep the e-mails you value from falling into the false positive trap. You can fight the blacklists with a “whitelist”. Whitelist every new subscription right at the start, before your delivery is interrupted.

One thing you can do no matter what e-mail system you’re using is add the address in the “From” line of Natural Health Dossier e-Letter to your address book. This address is [email protected].

Of course, every e-mail system is different. Below are instructions for some of the more popular ones. If yours isn’t here, please contact your ISP’s customer service department for their instructions. If you’re using some sort of spam filtering or blocking software yourself (in addition to what your ISP provides), we’ve also listed instructions on how to exempt your valued e-mails from some of the more popular of those programs.

To find instructions for your e-mail provider or software, scroll down or use the handy menu to the right.

AOL

For AOL version 9.0: You can ensure that valued e-mail is delivered to your Inbox by adding the sending address to your “People I Know” list.

  • Open the latest issue of Natural Health Dossier e-Letter.
  • Click the Add Address button (over on the right) to add that sender to your “People I Know” list.

Alternatively, you can simply send an e-mail to [email protected].

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 “People I Know” list–and that’s what counts.

If you’re using an earlier version of AOL, you’ll need to set your Mail Controls instead. Here’s how:

  • Go to Keyword Mail Controls.
  • Select the screen name Natural Health Dossier e-Letter is coming to.
  • Click Customize Mail Controls For This Screen Name.

For AOL version 8.0: Select Allow email from all AOL members, email addresses and domains.

  • Click Next until the Save button shows up at the bottom.
  • Click Save.

For AOL version 7.0: In the section for “exclusion and inclusion parameters”, include the domain of the “From” address (institutefornaturalhealing.com).

If you noticed e-mails coming from “INH Health Watch” or “INH – Angela Salerno” going to any tab but your “Primary,” there are two simple steps you can take to make sure you never miss a message from us.

1. Without opening our e-mail, click and hold your mouse down on it in your inbox. Next, drag it to your “Primary” tab, and let go.
2. You will then see a message asking if you want all future e-mails from that address to go to your “Primary” tab. Click Yes.

And that’s it! You’ve ensured you’re able to see and read our valuable health knowledge, instead of mixing it in with junk mail. And you can do this with any e-mail you want to move to your “Primary” inbox.

If one of your Natural Health Dossier e-Letters has been filtered into the Spam folder, you can prevent that ever happening again:

Others

Many popular e-mail programs, including older versions of 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 e-mail you value or want to make sure you continue to receive it 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 what subscriptions are e-mail that you asked for (or paid for) and value. Ask them if they can white-list the sender. (Unfortunately, some e-mail systems don’t allow whitelisting.) If they do white-list, they’ll probably ask you for some information about the publisher. Here’s what to tell them:

  • Sending Address: If your ISP asks for the “sender” or “from” address, give them the address [email protected]
  • Domain: If your ISP needs to know the domain Natural Health Dossier is mailing from, try forwarding them one of our e-mails. The domain is in the “header” of every e-mail. If that doesn’t work, you’ll have to contact the publisher to ask them what domain they’re sending from. There might be more than one, especially if you have multiple subscriptions.

IP Address: If your ISP asks for the sending IP address, try forwarding them one of our e-mails. The “originating IP” is in the “header” of every e-mail. If that doesn’t work, you’ll have to contact us to ask what IP address we’re sending from.
