Under each user's name on the desktop, it tells you if you are loged on, if you have programs running, and how many e-mail messages you have waiting. Under my name, it says I have 14 e-mail messages waiting. I have none, and neither does any other user. It is not correct. How can I get rid of that? I don't want to get rid of the e-mail notification; just that one inaccurate notification.
Thank you
