how to delete an account
 

I have an account set up in OE but I prefer to use outlook as my mail
client. I try to delete the account in OE but it isn't listed in
AccountsMail . In the left hand pane all of my contacts and inbox are
there and mail has been downloaded into the inbox. How do I close the mail
account so that I dont see downloaded mail?


TIA

Hi T5,

This is the second time I've seen this issue reported, but have not seen a
definitive answer. I can only speculate that Outlook is controlling the
account. You could try creating a new OE identity, import any desired data
and then remove the current default identity.
