On my Win Password screen it says I have got 1 e-mail, whereas I have a whole heap of them. Why? and how do you set it to give the correct number?

Thanks all,
Neville

The figure is the number of Unread Incoming E-Mails that you have yet to look at.

Hi,
That's correct. But I have a whole lot of unread e-mails when it says I have only one !
How come?

Thanks,
Neville

I believe the number of unread emails on the login screen is referring to a Hotmail/MSN account which you've set as the default in your .NET Passport settings.

If you have another email account with lots of unread emails in it, that login screen isn't checking it.
