[Bug 1238115] [NEW] indicator-messages shows outstanding messages when none exist

 

Public bug reported:

As per summary. The indicator is showing the little blue flag that says
I have new messages, when I don't. The only two active applications on
it, Thunderbird and xchat-gnome have nothing new.

To compound the problem, there's a terribly useful-looking "Clear"
option at the bottom of the indicator's menu... which is greyed out, so
I can't use it to clear the flag.

Screenshot says it all...
