Ghost email message count

[sanjsrik]

I've searched the forums, and apologies if I missed it, but since I got my new phone, upgraded the ROM, restored using sprite backup. First, the Yahoo email account showed up on my today screen but wasn't actually there, when the yahoo message line on today screen was tapped, I'd go to a blank outlook account.

So, I set up the yahoo account all over again, then it showed up TWO Yahoo accounts:

Yahoo Account: 32 messages (which in fact wasn't true)
Yahoo Account: 2 messages (the correct number)

I can't get rid of this 32 messages line. I've tried fixunreadcount.exe but it doesn't even find the discrepancy.

Any help would be most appreciated.

SOLVED:

I did a re-restore using my previous night's sprite backup file and excluded email. No email accounts restored, since there weren't any really necessary emails, this pretty much made it a non-issue.

Nice job on fixing the issue yourself and posting the solution for others to see.
