Re: deleting messenger accounts

by "Rebecca Harriss [MSFT]" <rharriss@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > May 5, 2008 at 12:32 PM

In Messenger 7 you can actually delete your accounts from the preferences
and UI in the UI. To do this Launch Messenger. Choose "Sign in with a
different account . . ." and choose the "Clear Account History . . .".
This
has to be done for the personal and cor****ate services separately.

Please note that this will clear all of the accounts for a particular
service.

Thanks,
Rebecca
