Making sure you get Ubindi emails

Making sure you get Ubindi emails

Occasionally, we will send emails to teachers using Ubindi about new features, updates, big fixes... we might also email you if something happens with your account or the system indicates something may be wrong. Don't worry, we really are careful not to overload you with incessant emails (and you can always unsubscribe, of course). But it may be important to you that you do receive emails coming from Ubindi!

The best way to ensure safe delivery of our emails is to add Ubindi to your "contacts" in your email program. Here's how:

How to add Ubindi to your address book

Adding an email sender address to your email address book or safe senders' list helps your mailbox provider (Gmail, Outlook, etc) understand that the sender can be trusted. This small step ensures the delivery of emails from Ubindi to your inbox.

  1. Open an email from Ubindi.
