Add IBackup as a safe sender

Gmail

To make sure emails get delivered to your inbox, you must add support@ibackup.com and support@send.ibackup.com to your contacts list.

1. Click the drop down arrow next to "Reply" in the upper right side of your inbox screen.
2. Click the "Add ibackup.com to Contacts List" from the list that appears.
3. You will now see IBackup appear under "Contacts" on the left side of the page.
4. Click "Contacts" and enter IBackup in the "Search Contacts" field.
5. Now you can select to move IBackup to a contact list of choice and edit any details.

Hotmail Live, Windows Live and MSN

In the new Hotmail, you must "Mark sender as safe" to enable hyperlinks in text emails and images in HTML emails.

Entering the email contact in the address book or contacts no longer whitelists the sender.

To ensure messages from specific email addresses are not sent to your Junk Email folder, you can do one of the two things:

1. Check the "Junk folder" if you do not see the IBackup email in your inbox.
2. Click the "Mark as safe" link.
3. Add support@ibackup.com and support@send.ibackup.com to your Safe List.
4. Click "Show content" to view the body of the email if it contains images and HTML.
5. Click "Mark as safe".
6. IBackup will now be added to your list of "Safe senders".

Manually Add to Safe List

1. Click "Options" in the upper right corner of your Hotmail screen.
2. In the Body of the page under "Preventing junk email", click the link "Safe and blocked senders".
3. Click the link "Safe senders".
4. Enter the email addresses "support@ibackup.com" and "support@send.ibackup.com".
5. Click "Add to list".

Yahoo! Mail

To make sure emails get delivered to your Yahoo mail inbox, there are two things you can do:

1. Use the "Not Spam" button in your Bulk folder.

2. When the "Mail & Spam Controls" box appears, click the "Custom Sender List" link.
3. Select both the options:

Because of the various email platforms that can work with Outlook, it is tricky to tell how to receive all emails in your Outlook inbox. However, you can make sure you see all the emails you receive as they were intended to be seen - with images. If a company is not in your address book or "Safe Sender" list, your HTML images will not display properly.

To have HTML display correctly, users can:

• Change their automatic download settings
• Add sender to your address book
• Add your email or domain to their approved sender list

To change settings:

1. Right click on a non-displaying image in a HTML email.
2. Choose "Change automatic download settings".
3. When the popup comes up, uncheck the first box in the list that says "don’t download pictures or other HTML content automatically".
4. Click "OK".

To add sender to address book:

1. Open the email.
2. Right click on the "from address".
3. Choose "Add to contacts".

To add domain to safe sender list:

1. Right click on a non-displaying image in an HTML email.
2. Choose "Add the domain to the safe sender list".
