To remove the Unread Email message by user's login names:

1.. Start Regedit
2.. For a single user: Go to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\UnreadMail
3.. For all users: Go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\UnreadMail
4.. Create a DWORD key called MessageExpiryDays
5.. Give it a value of 0
