Tip
Is it
frustrating to find that you can't send email because your mailbox is
full? One of the first solutions to try is to find which of your
emails is the largest and remove it first. To organize your emails by
their size, click on the word "size" .
Don't
forget after you delete an email, you will still need to go to the
delete folder and delete it again.
If your mailbox is full because of all the wonderful
links your ITRT sends you, see the following Highlight.

This
month's highlight:
PortaPortal
Portaportal is a web based bookmarking utility that lets you store
links to your favorite websites online. Now your bookmarks are no
longer limited to any one machine. Then, the next time you come
across a website that you like, simply copy the URL, login and add it
to your portal. This way no matter where you are when you surf the web,
the bookmark will be waiting for you! You may choose to set a
guest access. That way your colleagues and/or students may have
access to the same sites you visit often. Talk to your ITRT if
you want more ideas for using Portaportal.
