Message menu doesn't refresh new mail state for Thunderbird

[DJ]

If I open messages without clicking on the new mail icon in the panel, the icon stays blue, indicating that there's still new messages. The program should somehow check whether there's still unopened messages in the inbox.

Ubuntu 11.10
Thunderbird 7.0.1+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu1 0
notify-osd 0.9.32-0ubuntu3 0

Bug summary: Notification menu should refresh when mail is opened without clicking on the message menu first. This doesn't happen.

I've the same bug the mail isn't shown or visible in inbox when they're a new mail. Perhaps because the mail is threaded and the first message is read.
