Thunderbird constantly showing that I have new messages, despite not having anything new in my inbox or any of my folders

On Bazzite, currently I'm running Thunderbird version 140.8.1esr.

I only have one account set up in Thunderbird, which is my iCloud email account. I followed the steps in this guide to set up my iCloud email account in Thunderbird, and it went very smooth.

No matter what I do, no matter how many times I mark all folders as read, the icon in my dock ALWAYS displays a new mail notification.

I've removed and re-added my account twice, and have uninstalled and re-installed Thunderbird from the Bazaar store. iCloud on the web also does not show that I have any new messages.

Isisombululo esikhethiwe

I'm stupid... the reason that Thunderbird was showing that I had a new message was because I didn't clear the notification out of the system notifications...
