How to Whitelist Email

How to Whitelist Email

Meca sends out information on our products and occasionally special promotions.  Sometimes these emails are flagged as SPAM and blocked by your local email clients or servers.  In order to ensure that you receive our emails, please WHITELIST our email by following the instructions below.  Please note that although we try to keep this list current, email configurations with applications change frequently and it’s possible that some of this information is out of date.  If the screens don’t match, please google “Whitelist Email for …” and add your application to the search (Outlook, Yahoo, etc.).

Many companies have sophisticated systems that may still block emails even after they are whitelisted.  In those cases, it might be worthwhile to use a free account such as Gmail, Yahoo, etc., to receive our emails so that you have a greater chance of receiving them.

Apple Mail (OS X and iOS devices)

Both Apple Mail on OS X and Mail on iOS devices have a similar process for adding senders to Contacts. By selecting the From, or Reply-to on an email message, you can choose to “Add to Contacts” or “Add to VIPs.”  The difference between the two options is that adding to VIPs will add emails to a special VIP mailbox.

Gmail (Webmail and Mobile)

Getting all future emails from a sender to appear in the “Primary” tab (instead of “Promotions”, or elsewhere) is a quick, two-step process.

First of all, drag and drop the email message from beneath the tab it’s currently filed under, to the “Primary” tab:

Once done, a message alert will appear with, “This conversation has been moved to Primary. Do this for all future messages from [email protected]?” Select “Yes:”

Gmail on mobile devices doesn’t provide a way to prioritize messages. However, touching “Show images” then “Always show images from Sender” will ensure that images always display in the inbox:
