Others

Many e-mail programs, including older versions of Outlook, Outlook Express, Eudora, and Netscape Mail, don't provide an easy way for you to whitelist who you want to receive e-mail from. If you're using this sort of e-mail system and you either aren't getting your Smoking-Meat.com e-mail or want to make sure you continue to receive your Smoking-Meat.com mail in the future, you can contact your provider to solve the problem.

Contact the customer service department or the Postmaster at the company that provides your e-mail or Internet connection (your ISP). Notify them that Smoking-Meat.com mail is e-mail that you would like to receive and ask if they can whitelist us. (Unfortunately, some e-mail systems don't allow whitelisting.) If they do whitelist, they may ask for some information about us. Here's what to tell them:

Sending Address: If they ask for our address, give them the address in the "From" line of your most recent Smoking-Meat.com e-mail.

Domain: If they need to know the domain we're mailing from, tell them: @Smoking-Meat.com
