Regression: Marking a new Inbox message unread doesn't turn off "new mail" icon
The scenario:
1. The "new mail" icon appears in my Windows 7 notification area. 2. I go to my Thunderbird window and click on "Get Messages." 3. New messages show as unread, with a green dot. 4. Not wanting to read any of the messages right away, I pick a message and click on the green dot, marking the message as unread.
In previous versions of Thunderbird, the "new mail" icon would disappear. This was a good thing.
In the current version, the "new mail" icon stays up. This is not good.

Perhaps disable the add-on mailbox alert and see if you still see the issue. If not you might want to discuss the issue with the add-on author.
I disabled and deleted all add-ons, including the mailbox alert. Unfortunately, nothing changed.
I would recommend a rebuild of the notification area icon cache:

I backed up my system -- the reset batch file does stuff with the registry -- and tried it. It didn't change Thunderbird's behavior, but now I have a fresh backup, and that's a good thing.
