Outlook Express/XP Logon Screen

[Mike]

I've posted this a few times in the OE section of these
newsgroups, but I am told it is an XP problem, not OE, so
here it goes.

I just want my XP Pro logon (Welcome) screen to display
the number of pieces of mail that are in Outlook Express.
I can do this without a problem if I just want my Hotmail
address to show up, but I don't. I dont care whether it
shows up or not AT ALL. I would actually prefer for it
not to show up. That's not the problem. I never use
that email address. I was just using it to test this out.

My other email address, the one that is at neoflux.com
however will not show up at all. I read that people have
problems when using more
than one email address in Outlook Express, so I found
some info on how to edit the registry as to not display
certain addresses on the logon screen. I successfully
disabled the Hotmail account from showing but I can still
not get the Neoflux account to appear. I checked the data
in the registry for that account as well, and it looks
good, when comparing it to the data for the Hotmail
account when it used to appear.

As of right now, the Hotmail account is disabled and does
not show up at the Logon screen. I cant do anything to
make the Neoflux account to show up though. Any help?
