I think it may be a symptom of the occasional problem there has been with the forum database updating?
Has happened quite a few times over the last few weeks.
In that you do something like make a new post, thread, delete a PM etc, and although the forum has actually registered it, there is a delay of some minutes (even 20 or so) until it visablely shows on the forum.
e.g. a new post/thread may not show on a board, or a PM might still appear to be in your inbox.
Eventually the forum re-syncs and things sort themselves.
Tried the above with an old PM myself to test, and it did take a few mins to register as gone from my inbox.Free/impartial debt advice: National Debtline | StepChange Debt Charity | Find your local CAB

I'm having the same problem, have a PM I've read/replied/deleted, but it won't disappear, and keeps showing as unread-so with every page refresh I get asked if I want to read it.0
