Re: Is it possible to hide the Outlook e-mail account?

To remove Outlook (activesync mail) from your inbox.
In your registry editor on your Touch Pro navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Svc\

1. Back it up to a reg file the Folder ActiveSync that way you can restore it if it messes anything else up.
2. Delete the entire Folder or Rename it to say ActiveSync.bkp
3. re-open your inbox and the outlook folder should be gone
4. Hit the Thanks button


I have tested this myself and have had no issues. I now have only Hotmail, Sprint Picture Mail and Text Messages listed. I used Resco Register Editor, but any free one out there will do the same.

It may come back again if you make a new ActiveSync or WMDC partnership, but you can always get rid of it again til next time. Syncing normally seems to work fine and doesn't bring it back.

Enjoy
