I have access to a Messenger account from two accounts in
XP. I noticed one flagging up an email to be read, but I
actually logged off that account and only later checked
the email through the Messenger on the other account.

The problem? Now when I switch accounts, XP keeps telling
me that there is an email received on the first account
(the one I didn't use to open it) - trouble is it isn't
there anymore. What do I need to do to remove this
notification in XP?

Thanks
 
Greetings Grant,

To remove this, download the TweakUI powertoy:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/downloads/powertoys.asp (see on the right).

After you have TweakUI installed, click Start, All Programs, Powertoys for Windows XP, and
choose TweakUI for Windows XP. In the TweakUI window, on the left, click the '+' next to
Logon, and choose Unread Mail. Uncheck 'Show unread mail on Welcome screen' and click OK.
