    Can anyone help me?  Can anyone help me get rid of this message? It comes up all the time when I’m trying to access my emails. I no longer have the gmail account it refers to. It drives me bananas. I cannot enter the password as I no longer have the account and can’t remember the password anymore.  I can still read the emails on the account I do use
