There's this problem of the figure of PMs to be read not deleting or reducing once one has read said messages. On the old system, once you raised the PM the figure disappeared (or reduced by one).
The only reason I'm raising this is that it is slightly annoying that after reading (and even after ticking the "read" box btw) the figure is still there, unchanged, in the <bell> Messages box.

A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.

For anyone else wishing or needing to know, I have finally found a way of deleting the number of messages purporting to be waiting to be read! Here goes:
1) Delete the latest message or messages by clicking "Delete"
2) The deleted message is now in "Trash".
3) Click on the "Move" box to the top right of the message.
Doing this produces a drop down beneath the "Move" box, offering 3 options:
Inbox
Pending Posts
+ Add a folder
4) Click on Inbox
A pop up message now appears with the words
Move
Message has been updated.
5) Click to OK this
6) The message is now back in the Inbox.
The number in the "<bell> Messages" box has now been reduced by one.
Repeat the process for the other most recently received messages.
Messages can still be permanently deleted, but that is another story! :
