What is a “White List”?

In sort, your email white list are the people you trust to send you emails. I promise I’m not a robot trying to spam you email, and that I won’t bombard you with 100 coupon emails until you open them. I would hate to see you miss out on brand new content or exclusive deals because your computer accidentally sent an email to a spam folder. Totally not my style. But, to make sure that you actually receive my emails versus your computer thinking is should be placed in the spam folder, you have to chose this option manually.
