deleting email notification
When logging onto XP I notice that I get a notification as to how many emails
I have un-opened on my user account and the address is also listed.
I know their is an option to turn this feature off but would appreciate if
anyone can remind me where it is done.
Thanks - Rob.

Hi,
Added info:
For Passport/Unread Mail Issues:
Go to Start/Run and type in: control userpasswords2. Advanced/Manage
Passwords/Remove.
Tip:
Add Control Userpasswords2 to the Control Panel (Line 1)
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm
Use TweakUI/Logon/Unread Mail and Repair/Unread Mail Count
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/downloads/powertoys.asp
or:
Disable Unread Mail on the Welcome Screen (Line 100)
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm
To remove an account or to change the count manually Go to:
Start/Run/Regedit and navigate to this key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\UnreadMail\[Your
E-Mail Address]. In the right pane modify: Message Count, Change it to 0.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\UnreadMail. In
the right pane modify: MessageExpiryDays Change it to 0.
