How to Add Safe Senders in Yahoo Mail

Ensuring that important emails reach your inbox in Yahoo Mail is crucial for efficient communication. This guide will walk you through the steps to add safe senders by utilizing your contact list, setting up filters, and configuring allowlists to avoid missing important emails.

1. Adding the Sender to Your Yahoo Contacts:

   Adding a sender to your Yahoo Contacts can help ensure that their emails are recognized and directed to your inbox.

   1. Log in to your Yahoo Mail account.
   2. Open an email from the sender you want to add.
   3. Hover over the sender's name or email address at the top of the email.
   4. Click the three-dot menu next to their name.
   5. Select Add to contacts from the dropdown menu.
   6. Fill in any additional details you want and click Save.
2. Creating a Filter to Always Show Important Emails:

   Filters can be set up to automatically direct emails from specific senders to your inbox, bypassing the spam filter.

   1. Go to your Yahoo Mail inbox.
   2. Click the Settings gear icon in the upper right corner.
   3. Select More Settings from the dropdown menu.
   4. Choose Filters in the left sidebar.
   5. Click Add new filters.
   6. Enter a filter name (e.g., Important Contacts).
   7. In the "Set rules" section, define conditions such as "From" and enter the email address.
   8. Under "Choose a folder to move to," select Inbox.
   9. Click Save to create the filter.

   Tip: You can create multiple filters for different email addresses or domains to keep your inbox organized.

3. Utilizing the Spam Filter: Moving an Email from Spam to Inbox:

   Occasionally, important emails mistakenly end up in the Spam folder. Here's how you can adjust that:

   1. Navigate to the Spam folder in Yahoo Mail.
   2. Find the email you want to move and open it.
   3. Click the Not Spam button at the top of the email.

   Tip: Regularly check your Spam folder to ensure important emails haven’t been misclassified.
