Well I am disappointed its not just that the two area's differ in what
they say, the problem is they are both wrong, how can "a message menu
highlighting blue to notify you of a new message and then when you click
on it show 0 messages" be correct by anyone’s reckoning?

I tried this for two days, its not usable at all, guess I will just turn
all the notifying off for 7 months.
