Creating New Accounts

2023-02-24

If you are creating a user account using a Gmail address, there may be a problem with our automated notification emails being rejected by Google's spam filter. This can prevent users from receiving account confirmation emails, updates, and notifications. To avoid this, please add @teslcanadajournal.ca to your Gmail's list of permitted addresses. You can find instructions for doing so here: How to Whitelist an Email in Gmail

Institutional Outlook email addresses also sometimes run into similar problems, but the same solution can be applied: How to Whitelist an Email in Outlook.

A note, though: sometimes institutions have additional layers of security that override users' saved preferences. 

Please contact teslcanadajournal@tesl.ca should these steps not work, or if you think you should be receiving emails but are not.
