Hi papalaz,

If you want to completely disable the unread mail notification, d/load and
run the appropriate file, provided courtesy of Doug Knox, from he
http://www.dougknox.com/xp/scripts_d...mailnotify.htm

If you just want to reset the counter for the unread mail notification, open
the registry editor (StartRun key in regedit then click on OK or hit
ENTER), and navigate to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\UnreadMail
When you expand the UnreadMail key, click on the subkey that relates to the
email account in question. Look in the right-hand pane for MessageCount,
double-click on it, then set the Value data to 0 (zero). Click on OK and
then Exit the registry editor.



Regards,
