How to stop important emails going into my spam folder
It is important not to miss any of your important emails. Sometimes your email provider filters your emails and sends them to your junk or spam folder. To make sure emails always arrive in your inbox, follow these steps according to your mail provider.
Gmail Users
- Select contacts from the Gmail dropdown menu on the left-hand side of your Gmail Inbox.
- Select add to contacts from the top menu bar.
- Enter the email address.
- Select Add.
If an important email is in the Spam folder, you can mark it Not Spam to whitelist it. If you have any issues, try visiting the Gmail support page.

Outlook 2016 with Clutter enabled
These emails are being moved into the Clutter folder.
