User Name
When you first login you user name will be your email address.
Your email address is the key to the system. Many online sites now use only the email address as the user name to the system. Initially, this will be your user name. After your account is verified you will be able to change the user name. We do not recommend you do this.
E-Mail Address
To join the MortgageMag system you must use a valid, active email address. A verification request will be sent to this address. You must respond to have continued access to the system.
Periodically, a verification request will be sent to this address. If there is strange activity on your account we may put your account on hold until we can verify your identity/
Password
This is a 15 character field. You can log into your account using the email we send to you. You can then reset your password anytime. If you cannot access the system, please email or contact the system administrator.
Password Hint
This is just a reminder to you to help recall your password.
Display Name
This is the name that the other users will see. It is also refereed to as your nickname. You can use any name you want but it will still be tied to your email address.
We do not want people using the system who can not be identified. Every input to the MortgageMag system is monitored and tied to a user account. If that user proves to be irresponsible, all their information can be removed immediately. We can also return the information to the system.
Auto Login
When you close your browser, all information about your passwords and user names is erased. When you return to the MortgageMag pages, the system can `remember` the necessary information to continue to access the system without requiring you to login.
Sometimes this feature is not desirable. If you are using someone else`s computer, you do not want to leave them with the ability to automatically login to your accounts.
When you click on the no` button, the system will not create a `cookie` on this computer. `Cookie` is the software name for the file that is written on your computer to remember your login information.
Verification
All your email accounts must be `verified` by the system. When you enter a new email account the system sends you a message to that email account. You must click on the link to reply back to the system that you have received the message successfully.
