If you are an AOL Mail user, follow these steps to ensure that you receive all First Place E-Newsletters:
1. Mailbox: At the New Mail tab, be sure the "Show me mail from" box is set at "Everyone" so you can view all incoming mail. If you have it set at "People I Know," you'll need to add firstplace@firstplace.org to your address book in order to receive the E-Newsletters.

2. Mail Controls: To get there, click the "Mail Options" box and select "Block Unwanted Mail," or type in keyword mail controls, to bring up the page. Select "Allow all e-mail to be delivered to this Screen Name." If, however, you have chosen to use "Customize Mail Controls for this Screen Name," click the "Next" button to go to the page of options for allowing or blocking addresses. If you select "Allow e-mail from the listed...Block all others," you'll need to add firstplace@firstplace.org to your address list in order to receive the E-Newsletters. Click the "Next" button.

3. Recently Deleted Mail: Click the "Recently Deleted Mail" link and check for any E-Newsletters. To put them back in your Mailbox, highlight them and select "Keep as New."
4. Mail and Spam Controls: At Mail Options Mail Center Main/Mail Controls, click through the "Be in Control" link to the Mail and Spam Controls page. You may not receive the all the mail you want if you've selected too many of these controls. Especially uncheck "Block mail containing pictures or files" and "Mail with clickable hyperlinks (URLs)" in order to receive the E-Newsletters. Also uncheck "Mail filtered by AOL's Advanced Spam Filter"; this filter is for upgrading to 9.0 and also sends potential spam to a folder viewable only by 9.0 users--another place E-Newsletters can get lost.
MSN MAIL SETTINGS
If you are an MSN Hotmail user, follow these simple steps to ensure that you receive all Gospel Light or Regal E-Newsletters:
1. Hotmail: At the "Mail Handling" menu, click on
"Mailing Lists."

2. Add E-Mail Address: Type firstplace@firstplace.org in the box and click the "Add" button.

YAHOO MAIL SETTINGS
If you are Yahoo! Mail user, follow these steps to ensure that you receive all Gospel Light or Regal E-Newsletters:
1. Mail Options: From the Mail page, click through the "Mail Options" link to the Mail Options page and click on the "Spam Protection" link.
2. SpamGuard: You have the option of turning the SpamGuard filter on or off. If on, it automatically directs potential spam into a "Bulk Mail folder instead of your Inbox. If you are not receiving the E-Newsletters, it's possible that they have been delivered to your "Bulk" mail folder (see "Bulk" link on left side of Mail page).

3. Spam/Not Spam: If E-Newsletters have been delivered to your "Bulk" mail folder, you can have them directed to your Inbox. Go to "Bulk," check the box next to the e-mail, and click the "Not Spam" button. Future mailings from that e-mail address will now be delivered to your Inbox.
