Original Post

For months now I have had an unread message in my inbox. The problem is that I KNOW I don't really have any unread messages. I have opened all the messages I received since the problem arose but that #1 next to my envelope icon just won't go away. What can I do? I must admit, that silly little number 1 up there at the top of my screen is getting on my nerves... :o)

Are you sure it wasn't a message that you replied to, but the other person sent an additional message at the same time you replied, causing you to not notice their other comment?
It has happened to me before.
(Hopefully that run-on sentence makes sense!)

Your sentence totally makes sense :o) I have checked and re-checked all the messages and I am sure that is not the case~ I wish it was!

Dang. Sorry. I bet that's extremely annoying!

Hi Shelley,

I just went through your data, and I think there may be an unread convo from Oct 11. Let us know if that seems to solve the problem. Thanks!
