Thanks.  Well, at least I've learned a bit more about how things work.

In the end, before I could follow this up, I changed to Inbox, saw that there 
were only two of the ghosts instead of the three that were there yesterday.  I 
clicked on the top one to see if anything at all is visible, and both 
disappeared!  Fingers crossed that they stay away, but if they don't at least 
I know where to look now.

Thanks for your patient explanations.
