When you first turn on PC, all the users names are shown, and some show that
there are (eg 6) email messages waiting. How is this set up, and can I turn
it off?

Hi

Download TweakUI from
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/d...powertoys.mspx and
when installed go to Programs>Powertoys for Windows XP>Tweak UI - then go
to Logon>Unread Mail - disable it in the right hand pane.

Otherwise the Unread Mail message can be disabled via the Registry -
navigate to:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Mic*rosoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\*UnreadMail\[Y*ouremailaddress]
- double click on 'MessageCount' - in the right hand pane - and change the
value to 0(Zero).

OK Will, that sounds good, thx.
Do you know why does it only show this message for certain email accounts
and not others?
