Messaging - Mini Outlook - Changing account name?

crazyswede · 10-28-04, 03:05 AM

When I set up messenger some time ago I ended up with the wrong account name on some of my email accounts... eg "pop".

The problem is that I can't change the names. If you go into the account settings you can change most settings but the account name setting is grayed out???

Is the only way to fix it deleting it and setting it up again? Stupid. I hope I am stupid and that I missed something.

Thanks

You are correct. The only way is to delete the accont and create a new one.

There is a registry eentry that holds account info, but it's stored in an array kry, not easily edited.

Is there anyway of telling it to download all the emails not just the unread ones?
