Thunderbird Tray Icon Says I Have 4 Billion Unread Messages

more options

Windows 10. Thunderbird 115.8.0 While trying to figure out why my taskbar badge says I have 99+ unread emails (for the record, I only have 7), I hovered over the tray icon, and it says I have over 4 billion (with a B!) unread emails. That's not even possible with the email address I'm using it for. Why would this be like this, and how do I get it to be accurate?

I do not remember having a start menu or desktop in Windows that looked anything like what you have in that image. How do I go about making it the same so I can reproduce your process?

Well I cropped that original shot to only show the notification popup from the tray. But I use Rainmeter to customize my desktop. Here's a second screenshot that shows my taskbar (and the 99+ badge), along with the popup that has the over 4 billion emails.
