  • Add sstanews@ssta.org.uk to your Google Contacts
  • Move emails from the SSTA to the Primary tab.
    When you move one of our email from the Promotions tab to the Primary tab. Gmail should ask whether it should always deliver our emails there. Please see these Gmail Help instructions for further information on inbox categories & tabs in Gmail.

Emails not being received by a school or workplace email address.  This could be caused by internal firewall or spam filter. Some schools and workplace do not like seeing emails being sent to a lot of people on the same domain, via a third party such as MailChimp.  Sometimes, with corporate and university filters, these emails look suspicious and are blocked. You may have to ask the school/workplace server administrator or IT department to add the SSTA email address to a safelist to allow the emails to be delivered.  If you are not able to do this, please provide the SSTA with a personal email address that messages can be sent to using the update details form.
