To whitelist an email in Yahoo Mail, you can add the sender to your contacts or create a filter. Adding the sender to your contacts makes it more likely that their emails will be delivered to your inbox. Creating a filter gives you more control and ensures that all emails from a specific sender or domain go directly to your inbox. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
Method 1: Adding to Contacts [3]
- Log in to your Yahoo Mail account.
- Click the Contacts icon.
- Select “Add a new contact”.
- Enter the sender’s email address and other relevant information.
- Click “Save”. [2, 3, 6, 7]
Method 2: Creating a Filter [8]
- Log in to your Yahoo Mail account.
- Click the gear icon (Settings) and select “More Settings”.
- Click on “Filters” in the left-hand menu.
- Click on “+ Add new filters”.
- Enter a descriptive name for the filter (e.g., “Whitelist [email address]”).
- Under “Set rules,” select “From” and enter the email address you want to whitelist.
- Choose “Inbox” as the folder to move the emails to.
- Click “Save”. [2, 5, 6, 8, 9]
You can also whitelist all emails from a specific domain by entering the domain name (e.g., @example.com) in the “From” field of the filter, according to Web Applications Stack Exchange. [1, 10]
