I get a red number 4 next to my profile picture, and the green band of "you have a PM", but when I go to my mailbox, it's empty.

This has gone on for a while now. I tried to report it in the BUGS BUGS BUGS thread, but there was no response.

If you have someone blocked, the PM system will still display that there are new messages from them, even if you can't read them. This is a known issue.

What in Pele's name is up with apostrophes that it breaks thread titles like this? Fixed it.

[up][up]I trust that it isn't deemed not worth fixing, then? I'd hate to neglect my mailbox when a mod message appears...

No, stuck in a backlog. You need to unblock the troper, read their message, then reblock.

... That kind of defeats the whole point of blocking someone...

When did you block someone? Before or after reading all of their previous PMs?

I believe I had read all of their messages by the time I blocked them, yes.

I have a PM related issue similar to this... I was exchanging PMs with another troper and now I can't seem to see any of their replies, only my own messages to them. I haven't blocked them.

EDIT: It seems I did, on accident. Whoops... problem solved, I guess.

This is supposedly fixed, if no please re-report in the Query Bugs noticeboard.
