"Unread mail message" on log on

[Guest]

Each time I start up (XP-Pro) my profile shortcut on the log on screen has
the message "You have 3 unread mail messages" I dont, so how do I get rid of
the message (and why does it stay there?) It does not seem to be interfering
with anything, however each time I get mail, the counter increases and its
anoying! Help pse.

Or use TweakUI.

TweakUI
[+] Logon
Unread mail
Uncheck: Show unread mail on Welcome screen

[[This allows to enable viewing of unread mails on the Welcome Screen and
also to specify how long mails have to be marked as unread. This setting can
be applied to all users or a specific user only (the user who is currently
logged on).]]

Hi

Download TweakUI from
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx and
when installed go to Programs>Powertoys for Windows XP>Tweak UI - then go
to Logon>Unread Mail - disable it in the right hand pane.
