I've not noticed this vertical arrow before or has it always been there. Clicking it does nothing. What is it?

I do not have one. Do you see if you restart Thunderbird in Safe Mode? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/safe-mode-thunderbird

It is a supposed to be a notification of an update. Are you using a beta version?

I located this bug report which discusses adding that icon. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1549242

In 'Help' > 'About Thunderbird', does it say there is an update ?
