White List/Safe Sender Instructions

NMHC E-MAIL WHITE LIST INSTRUCTIONS:

To make sure your important NMHC communications arrive in your inbox (and not bulk or junk mail folders), please "White List" our sending information.   White listing must take place at two levels: at the recipient's desktop level and at their corporate e-mail server level.  Instructions for both appear below.

SERVER LEVEL (Corporate E-Mail Administrator)

To ensure continued delivery of NMHC's newsletters, legislative alerts, white papers and other important communications, please add NMHC as a safe sender to your corporate e-mail system.  Below is the information your e-mail administrator will need to do so.  Importantly, in addition to the individual emails sent by our staff, NMHC uses an external provider to send most of our member emails and a separate provider for our listserves.  

Please be sure to have your e-mail administrator whitelist all of these domains and both third-party service providers to ensure that NMHC mail is not caught by your corporate e-mail filters.
