    Hi Eric,

     

    Log out refers to all non iMessages Accounts such as AIM Jabber/Google and Yahoo

    Also it will only log out the Account the app thinks is "Front"  (It's and iChat hangover)

     

    The Poster needs to go to Messages > Preferences > Accounts and Sign Out of the iMessages one.
