   Yes. I've done just that. They have a "Safe Senders" list that you can   
   add to; just as MS Outlook does. In fact, the whole layout of their   
   webmail looks like Outlooks.   
   I've added the domain address, but I'm not sure that will cover it; I   
   suspect I'll have to add individual posters.
