Mac, Dock icon, number of unread messages "99+" after upgrade

Hi there.

I recently upgraded Thunderbird to 91.3.0 on my Mac. Since then the number of unread messages in the dock icon changed from the full count to "99+". That's not, what I want - I want to see quickly if I received new messages, for example when I use the app switcher. I did not find a way to change it back to how it was before. Any ideas?

Thank you!

I always have many more 'unanswered' emails. So "99+" is utterly redundant and only a nuisance. Please revert to previous functionality giving the full number OR leave it altogether, please
