How to Whitelist a Domain in MailWasher Pro

By , About.com Guide

The various filtering techniques in MailWasher Pro are pretty effective.

Unfortunately, they can get too effective and catch good mail. Fortunately, it's particularly easy to prevent this for known senders in MailWasher Pro by whitelisting individual senders or domains.

I have whitelisted "about.com" immediately after signing up for an About newsletter, for example, to make sure MailWasher Pro never interferes.
