Others

Older versions of Outlook, Outlook Express, Eudora, and Netscape Mail, among others, don't provide a simple way for you to whitelist those from whom you would like to receive email. If you're using one of these e-mail systems and you aren't getting e-mail you value or want to make sure you continue to receive it in the future, you can do something about it.

Contact the customer service people or the postmaster at the company that provides your e-mail or Internet connection (your ISP, or Internet Service Provider). Explain to them what subscriptions are e-mail that you asked for (or paid for) and value. Ask them if they can whitelist the sender. (Unfortunately, some e-mail systems don't allow whitelisting.) If they do whitelist, they'll probably ask you for some information about the publisher. Here's what to tell them:

• Sending Address: If your ISP asks for the "sender" or "from" address, give them the address "accountinfo@scholarships.com"
• Domain: If your ISP needs to know the domain scholarships.com is mailing from, try forwarding them one of our e-mails. The domain is in the "header" of every e-mail. If that doesn't work, you'll have to contact the publisher to ask them what domain they're sending from. There might be more than one, especially if you have multiple subscriptions

IP Address: If your ISP asks for the sending IP address, try forwarding them one of our e-mails. The "originating IP" is in the "header" of every e-mail. If that doesn't work, you'll have to contact us to ask what IP address we're sending from.
