Safelist the Quest domains on your organization’s server

To ensure that Quest emails are not caught in your organization’s spam filters, we recommend safelisting the following domains at the server level: @questoraclecommunity.org and @go.questoraclecommunity.org.

This is especially important for government, healthcare, education and financial institutions where the safelisting process is required.

Need messaging to use with your IT department? See below:

[Company name] has recently purchased a corporate membership with Quest Oracle Community, an independent, non-profit user group providing training and education Oracle customers.

In order to receive emails from Quest, including membership notices, I’d like to request that two Quest email domains (@questoraclecommunity.org and @go.questoraclecommunity.org) be added to our organizations safe sender list at the server level.

This will help ensure that all Oracle users at [company name] can participate in Quest community activities and fully benefit from our membership. Thank you!
