How to delete an e-mail account that's not visible?

I just updated to the new ROM and used SPB Backup to restore some of my old stuff. I had it restore the e-mail, but now I've got a problem. The Messaging Today plug-in shows my two old e-mail accounts, but when I tap on them they don't show up (it just takes me to messaging, which includes only Outlook). When I go manage the accounts they're not there either. But if I try to add them back in and keep the same name (which I'd like to do), it tells me an account already exists with that name.

I'm going to keep digging around and will probably find it eventually, but can anyone tell me quicker how to delete the old entries so I can re-add them?

I especially want to delete the Gmail one now that Gmail's adding IMAP support.

You should not restore a backup over a newer rom as it will overwrite system files and registry settings.

I didn't restore the entire backup, only specific files, and made a point of unchecking options such as registry settings. As an experiment, though, I restored the e-mail, as well, and that's where my problem lays.
