From your Gmail account, begin by selecting the **Gear Icon** for your settings located in the top right-hand corner of your screen![Gear icon](https://cdn.document360.io/4e721329-1a9d-4ef0-8d2f-497e0c1f185a/Images/Documentation/HelcimSupport--1649809235882.jpg)

Next, select **See all settings**.From the **Settings** page, select **Filters and Blocked Addresses** from the top menu bar in the center of your screen.

Select **Create a new filter**, if you have already created a few filters you might need to scroll down the page to find this option![create a new filter](https://cdn.document360.io/4e721329-1a9d-4ef0-8d2f-497e0c1f185a/Images/Documentation/HelcimSupport--1649809471776.jpg)

In the pop up box that appears enter the domain that you would like to whitelist in the **From** field by typing the email address you want to allow. To allow every email address from a particular domain, type just that domain name, for example, to allow all emails from Helcim, enter @helcim.com.![search all conversations](https://cdn.document360.io/4e721329-1a9d-4ef0-8d2f-497e0c1f185a/Images/Documentation/HelcimSupport--1649809607183.jpg)Click **Create Filter** to add this filter to your account.![create filter button](https://cdn.document360.io/4e721329-1a9d-4ef0-8d2f-497e0c1f185a/Images/Documentation/HelcimSupport--1649809660371.jpg)Now, specify what you want Gmail to do with these emails, in this case we'll select **Never send it to Spam**![never send it to spam checkbox](https://cdn.document360.io/4e721329-1a9d-4ef0-8d2f-497e0c1f185a/Images/Documentation/HelcimSupport--1649809753755.jpg)Click **Create Filter**![Create filter button](https://cdn.document360.io/4e721329-1a9d-4ef0-8d2f-497e0c1f185a/Images/Documentation/HelcimSupport--1649809792273.jpg)You have now created your filter and will be able to see it in your list of applicable filters.![applicable filters list](https://cdn.document360.io/4e721329-1a9d-4ef0-8d2f-497e0c1f185a/Images/Documentation/HelcimSupport--1649809888998.jpg)
