I note several requests for glitches in the welcome "unread message" count/no accompanying messages. This is driving me nuts, and I can find no option for clearing or disabling this notification. It is for Messenger, not Outlook Express. Please help!!
 
Hi,

To get rid of the messages about unread emails in the welcome screen
look in the registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\UnreadMail

You will find a value called"MessageCount" change it to zero.

Alternatively, download tweakUI, which is part of Powertoys for
Windows XP and has a feature regarding unread mail messages:

Good luck
