Lots e-mail providers have tools to block spam. That's great, but SOMETIMES these programs get a little too excited and block emails you WANT to receive.

To make sure you're getting emails from me, add the corresponding Chris Robley email addresses to your email "whitelist."

A whitelist is a list of e-mail addresses or domain names from which an e-mail blocking program will allow messages to be received.

Why is this important?

If you don't care what's up with my music, it's not!

But if you want to receive my periodic little missives, please white-list me now, before delivery of my emails gets interrupted.

Below are instructions for some of the more popular email providers. If yours isn’t listed here, please contact your ISP's customer service folks for their instructions.

Gmail:

1. In your inbox, locate an email from me (for example, the welcome email I sent when you subscribed).


2. Drag this email to the “primary” tab of your inbox.

3. You’ll see that my emails will go to your primary folder in the future:
