Thank you for your bug report, it's likely that you have an old version of the extension in your user profile which is masking the system version from quantal and creating the issue, could you check if that's the case?

affects: indicator-messages (Ubuntu) → thunderbird (Ubuntu)

Sebastien Bacher (seb128), I have the clear installation of Ubuntu 12.10 x64 beta 2 installed with the latest updates from all available official sources.

I have this problem on my 2 PC ant 1 laptop.

How can I check the version of the extension in my user profile?

Version of indicator-messages is 12.10.4-0ubuntu1

I have found a solution. I have deleted a folder /home/myname/.config/indicators/ and now it is working fine. But I think that it is still a bug. Because, it can be a problem when upgrading from 12.04.1 to 12.10. In my case I have installed 12.10 without any changes in my /home/ folder, because it is on a different partition.

I have delete all hidden folders with settings from my home folder except some software settings (for ex. .mozilla, .thunderbird, .osmo). And then I reinstalled the system from daily built.
The problem is still there... I still don't get notifications about new mail.

Changed in thunderbird (Ubuntu):
