If the incoming email is already in your SPAM folder you can then go ahead and click the button labled

"This Is Not Spam"

 

Gmail

If the mailing is in your SPAM folder, check the box next to the mailing and click the "Not Spam" button along the top.

 

Hotmail

Add the From address you want to receive mailings from to your Hotmail Safe List:
