Default Re: Is there any way to 'REMOVE' unwanted e-mail address?

Click File | Identities | Switch Identities and see if the new one is an
option. If it is, switch to it and then go to Tools | Accounts and remove
it.

If this is not the case, then the Identity was never created properly.

Go to Start | Run | Regedit | OK | HKEY_CURRENT_USER | Identities. Open each
identity until you find the one you want to remove, (you will see the
account user name in the right pane). Right click on the identity in the
left pane | Delete.
