Why Emails Go to Spam and How to Stop It

  • 1) Train your inbox

    • In Spam/Junk, select the email and choose Not Spam.
    • Add the sender to your address book.

    2) Check Quarantine

    • Security filtering may hold suspicious emails in Quarantine.
    • Review and release legitimate messages.

    3) Review filters and block list

    • In Webmail, check Filters/Rules that might move or delete messages.
    • Remove any blocked senders that shouldn’t be blocked.

    4) Ask the sender to follow good practice

    • Keep messages under 35 MB.
    • Avoid spam-trigger patterns (excessive links, misleading subjects).
    • Mweb senders should follow Mail Sending Rules and Guidelines (SMTP 587 with authentication).
