XP Profile says I have phantom email

[Thomas Dawe]

Hello! I'm using Windows XP. I recently set it up to
use 3 separate user profiles. Now, my user profile (the
original profile before I broke it off into three
sections) says I have 3 unread e-mail. I've checked all
of my email and have none to read. I've already removed
all unassociated email profiles from this XP profile.
How can I clear that message?
