Email security is stronger than ever.....but how do you avoid missing communication from people you actually want to hear from? 

Create a Safe Senders List

*Microsoft® Outlook®*

1. Select **Home** > **Junk** > **Junk E-mail Options**.
2. Select the **Safe Senders** tab.
3. Select **Add**.
4. Type the email address and select **Ok **> **Apply**.

You can also manage your safe sender list settings on this screen, such as choosing to automatically add people you email to the list.

*Google® Gmail™*

1. Select the **Settings** gear icon.
2. Select the **Filters and Blocked Addresses** tab.
3. Select **Create a new filter**.
4. Type the email address in the **From** section and select **Create Filter**.
5. Select the **Never send it to Spam** checkbox.
6. Select **Create Filter** again.

*Apple Mail®*

1. Select **Mail** > **Preferences** > **Junk Mail** from the top menu.
2. Select the **Enable junk mail filtering** checkbox.
3. Select the** Sender of message is in my contacts** and/or **Sender of message is in my Previous Recipients **checkboxes, depending on your preferences. 
     1. If you choose the “Sender of message is in my contacts” option, you must add the email address to your Apple contacts for it to work correctly. If you choose the “Sender of my message is in my Previous Recipients” option, senders who have sent you emails before will no longer go to your junk folder.
