When you log in, the page refreshes to display several tabs, including Personal, WebAdvisor, WebCT, E-Mail and Account Management.

 

Main Menu

Drop Menus

Scrolling over a navigation tab produces a drop menu, detailing the "channels" for a specific section.

E.g., the Personal tab contains resources such as the Briefcase Portlet and a Calendar.

Selecting an item on the drop menu allows the channel to fill the screen, eliminating the scrollbars that frame it.

(Note: These menus will not appear in Internet Explorer.)

 Scrolling Menu

Buttons

There are four buttons on every channel header (the blue bar running above channel contents).

  • Minimize: Collapses the contents of a channel, allowing other channels in the column to move up the page.
  • Help: Opens a new browser window containing online information about all of the channels.
  • Focus: Refreshes the portal, allowing the selected channel to fill the browser window.
  • Detach: Opens a new browser window for the selected channel.

Anti-Spam

The SpamAssassin filter helps to identify spam in your e-mail.

Black and White Filter Lists
Add email addresses, service providers or domains that you always (black) or never (white) want to be marked as Spam.

  • The Black List is the Spam list. Block one address (e.g., quickcash@getrich.com) or an entire domain (e.g., *@getrich.com).
  • The White List is like a buddy list. I.e., messages from addresses or domains that you always want to read.

Account Management

When you click submit, you will be logged out.
