Bug Description
After each reboot, account-polld stops showing incoming emails after displaying 3 notifications.
The reason for that is that account-polld does not recognize when messages are cleared from the messaging indicator and therefore does not show any further notifications.
How to reproduce:
1) Reboot your phone.
2) Send yourself 3 test emails
3) Wait 5 minutes until account-polld has been run
4) You'll see three notifications stating that there are new emails
5) Tap on the "clear all" entry in the notifications indicator
6) Mark your last three emails as read (this is optional)
7) Send yourself another test email
8) Wait 5 minutes again until account-polld has been run
9) No notification about the new unread email is shown
Why does it happen:
When clicking the "clear all" button, the internal cache of previous messages isn't cleared. Therefore, account-polld still thinks that there are 3 notifications and does not display any further messages.

I don't think this is a bug in account-polld; polld queries the push notifications client to ask about what is displayed. The push notifications client polls the messaging menu to know when things have been cleared from it. That poll is done every 5 minutes, which is the same frequency account-polld is woken, so in actual operation this should not be a problem. You're only seeing this because you're poking polld manually.
