Thank you very much for your reply, John.

While your explanation makes sense, I have to add that I also see this behaviour in "actual operation". I just added those manual pokes to the description to make reproduction easier but it looks like that was misleading.
When looking at the account-polld logs on my phone during regular usage, I see exactly the same error messages (vivid-proposed, r140). Therefore, no more than 3 incoming messages are displayed for me.

Judging from what you said, it might be a indicator-messaging bug so I'm
adding that to the affected projects. Additionally, I'll update the
description and remove the parts about poking account-polld manually.

** Description changed:

  After each reboot, account-polld stops showing incoming emails after displaying 3 notifications.
  The reason for that is that account-polld does not recognize when messages are cleared from the messaging indicator and therefore does not show any further notifications.
  
  How to reproduce:
  
  1) Reboot your phone.
  2) Send yourself 3 test emails
- 3) Cause account-polld to run (*)
+ 3) Wait 5 minutes until account-polld has been run
  4) You'll see three notifications stating that there are new emails
  5) Tap on the "clear all" entry in the notifications indicator
  6) Mark your last three emails as read (this is optional)
  7) Send yourself another test email
- 8) Make account-polld run again
+ 8) Wait 5 minutes again until account-polld has been run
  9) No notification about the new unread email is shown
- 
- (*) gdbus call --session -d com.ubuntu.AccountPolld -o
- /com/ubuntu/AccountPolld -m com.ubuntu.AccountPolld.Poll
  
  Why does it happen:
  
  When clicking the "clear all" button, the internal cache of previous
  messages isn't cleared. Therefore, account-polld still thinks that there
  are 3 notifications and does not display any further messages.
