How to prevent emails from La Récup' going into your spam folder?

Emails from La Récup' will almost entirely be 'transactional' emails, i.e. related to your activities on this site.

For example, to confirm that you have posted an ad, to let you know that you have a reply to your ad, or to remind you if your ad is about to expire, and so on. Sometimes, particularly because these emails are automatically generated, some of them may be filtered into your spam folder by your email system. 

How to prevent this from happening depends on your email provider. Sometimes all you need to do is add our email address to your contacts. But to be sure, you need to add our email address ([email protected]) to what is called a "whitelist": email addresses that you trust and from which emails should go to your inbox and not to spam.

Other Email Providers

For other email providers, Google "how to whitelist xxxxx emails", where xxxxx is the name of your email service. Or, if you need help, feel free to contact us.

If you have a Bluewin email address, the information we have indicates that it is not possible to add email addresses or email domains to a whitelist. Therefore, our advice is to add [email protected] to your contacts and, if any of our emails end up in your spam folder, mark them as not spam.
