Receiving Announcements:

Prevent announcement emails from going to your spam folder

We still have several folks not receiving emails or they find them in their SPAM or JUNK folder. This likely means the resident's email provider (such as Charter, TDS, Yahoo, gmail) or the resident's email client is blocking our email address or IP address or marking our email as spam.

If you find announcements in your SPAM or JUNK folder or are not receiving Announcements at all:

1. To unblock Announcements on your email client (mail app), add info@wildhoginthewoods.org to your address book and/or contacts list on every device where you receive emails (computer, laptop, tablet, smart phone). This tells each device and email client that you want emails from Announcements and from Ellen.
2. You may need to also "whitelist" our sending address info@wildhoginthewoods.org with your email provider. Do this by selecting the link or instructions below for your email provider:
   • Charter/Spectrum
