Get a legitimate email out of quarantine

Mail caught by spam filtering sits in quarantine, not your inbox. You can release genuine messages yourself, within limits set by whedo.it.

  1. Open the quarantine notification email and use its link, or go to security.microsoft.com/quarantine and sign in.
  2. Find the message in the list and select it to see why it was held.
  3. Choose Release to deliver it to your inbox, or Request release if your policy needs admin approval.
  4. Tick the option to report it as a false positive so the filter learns, if offered.
  5. Note that items quarantined as malware can’t be self-released — those go to whedo.it.
  6. If a sender’s mail keeps getting caught, add them as a safe sender as well.

Still stuck after those?

You’ve done the right thing by trying. Send whedo.it a quick note — what you tried, what you saw — and a senior pair of eyes will be on it the same business day.
