Mail count on Password page - HELP

[The Subject®]

Can someone please tell me two things:

1) On the log in screen where each user puts their password to get into
Windows XP, it lists how many e-mails are waiting for me. How do I set it up
so it shows the E-mail account I want it to show?

2) How do I set it up to not show ANY e-mail account?

Thank you

Hi

You can get rid of that message:

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.

Otherwise the Unread Mail message can be disabled via the Registry -
navigate to:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Mic­rosoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\­UnreadMail\[Y­ouremailaddress]
- double click on 'MessageCount' - in the right hand pane - and change
the value to 0(Zero).
