Welcome Screen

[Rob]

This is a small but annoying problem: I configured
outlook express under my user account instead of my
wife's by accident. So I deleted the e-mail account under
my XP account and reconfigured under my wife's account.
The problem is that outlook express had 24 unread
messages on it when I removed the e-mail account from my
XP user account. My wife deleted the messages from her XP
account but on the welcome screen it still shows that I
have 24 unread messages! How do I get rid of that
message? The messages have been fully deleted.

Thanks
