Ghost/Phantom notifications
 
Hi,

I recently had a pm spammer join and instantly send out a lot of spam to my users. Now, instead of doing the clever thing and going through the cp and deleting all his sent messages etc I deleted through mysql.

Everything seemed to be ok but now some users are complaining that they are getting message notifications but when they click there is no new message.

What I'm doing to rectify this is setting pmunread field in the user table back to zero. However, the notification seems to reappear subsequently especially if they've just sent a pm.

Any ideas on what I have missed in the clean up?

Yeah, doing it via MySQL results in this bug.
It's recommended you do it via the acp, NOT MySQL.

You can try to run a query to reset the notifications, but I don't see why there is a need to delete PM's via SQL queries.

It's obviously too late for that.
