Special Alert: Gmail has adjusted it’s SPAM filter so a LOT more legitimate email is getting caught in it’s SPAM including bulletins from out trading. If you are a PAID subscriber and use gmail for you email we strongly recommend the following steps:

How to Whitelist an Email Sender in Gmail

There are two ways to whitelist email addresses, or even web domains, in Gmail.

One, you should add the email addresses of all the known contacts to your Google Contacts list. Google will almost always deliver messages to your Inbox when the ‘From:’ address of the message is listed in your Google Contacts database.

The other thing you can do is create a manual whitelist in Gmail to ensure that email messages from certain senders are never ever marked as Spam. You can in fact whitelist entire domains so that messages from your colleagues reach your Inbox irrespective of whether you have added them to your Google Contacts or not.

Here’s how you can whitelist email addresses and domains in Gmail:

Step 1: In Gmail, click the “Create a Filter” link which is placed just next to the search box.

Step 2: In the From: field, enter the email addresses, domain names or even actual names of people who you would like to whitelist. You can separate multiple entries using OR (in Caps) or with the bar (|) sign.

Step 3: Once your filter is ready, click Next and select “Never Send it to Spam.”

That’s it! Now messages that match the above criteria will always get delivered to your Inbox and won’t ever be marked as spam.

***Generic instructions for other email programs***

(That’s why many email and internet outfits use programs to block spam — which I’ll loosely define as “unwanted email.”)

Unfortunately, sometimes these programs block email YOU WANT TO GET.

So, in order for me to help you make money in the oil & gas markets, I need you to GET MY EMAILS.

And the best way to ensure you get every issue of Oil & Gas Investments Bulletin — as well as every special report prepared by my research staff and me — is to White List Us.

Simply put, Whitelisting is a line in the sand.  It lets Email Service Providers (like Gmail, Yahoo and AOL) know that we’re a trusted source… and that their email blocking programs should allow our messages to be received.

Now I’ve put together some easy instructions below on how to Whitelist us.

Just pick your Internet or Email Service Provider from the list below, and follow the instructions.

*One last note… Another thing you can do, no matter what e-mail system you use, is add the address in the FROM line of any Oil & Gas Investments email to your Address Book.

ISPs / ESPs:

AOL

For AOL version 9.0: you can ensure that your Oil & Gas Investments Bulletin is delivered to your Inbox by adding our sending address to your “People I Know” list.

Open your latest Oil & Gas Investments Bulletin e-mail.
Click the Add Address button (over on the right) to add Oil & Gas Investments Bulletin to your “People I Know” list.
Alternatively, you can just send an e-mail to the Oil & Gas Investments Bulletin “From” address, and that will add us to your “People I Know” list automatically.

Open your latest Oil & Gas Investments Bulletin e-mail.
Copy the address in the “From” line.
Click the Reply button (it’s in the top right corner).
A new email window opens with an address pre-filled in the “Send To” box.
Replace the address in the Send To box with the one you copied out of the From line.
Click Send Now (it’s in the top right corner).
Even if the e-mail you send doesn’t get through to us (for whatever reason), the act of sending it does the job of putting Oil & Gas Investments Bulletin into your “People I Know” list–and that’s what counts.

If you’re using an earlier version of AOL, you’ll need to set your Mail Controls instead. Here’s how:

Go to Keyword Mail Controls.
Select the screen name we’re sending your Oil & Gas Investments Bulletin to.
Click Customize Mail Controls For This Screen Name.
For AOL version 8.0: Select Allow email from all AOL members, email addresses and domains.

Click Next until the Save button shows up at the bottom.

Others

Many popular e-mail programs, including older versions of  Outlook, Outlook Express, Eudora, and Netscape Mail, don’t provide a convenient way for you to white-list the folks you want to receive e-mail from. If you’re using this sort of e-mail system and you either aren’t getting your Oil & Gas Investments Bulletin or want to make sure you continue to receive your issues 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). Explain to them that Oil & Gas Investments Bulletin is e-mail that you asked for and value. Ask them if they can white-list the Oil & Gas Investments Bulletin. (Unfortunately, some e-mail systems don’t allow white-listing.) If they do white-list, they’ll probably ask you 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 Oil & Gas Investments Bulletin.

Domain: If they need to know the domain we’re mailing from, here it is:
oilandgas-investments.com AND mail.vresp.com

IP Address: If they ask for our sending IP address, it’s this: 216.187.93.93
