upon thunderbird start, msg at lower left says "there are no new messages", within a few sec, Tbird icon on the task bar gets a red dot with the number of new messages...yes there are some...what is wrong ?
After thunderbird starts, i see the txt at the lower left "sending login information" followed by "there are no new messages"....but a couples of seconds later, a red dot appears on the blue Tbird icon on the task bar, indicating a number of new messages received....why do these two indicators contradict each other ?
I think this began to happen when I moved my profile from win10 to a new machine on win11. Everything else seems to work fine, but I don't think that txt msg at the lower left after initialization has ever said there are new messages....since moving to the new machine & OS.
Looks like the txt portion of that message is getting information from somewhere different than the red dot on the taskbar icon is ?

I think you're seeing both Thunderbird's notification and Windows' notification. I'm not sure why they don't agree, but it might have something to do with the App Icon Options, one of which chooses either "Count of unread messages" or "Count of new messages.
Play with those notifications settings and see if you get something that you like.
