PM notifications not working consistently

On my profile:
But:
The PM in question (now read):
And my notifications:
This was my last notification for a PM. I've had 5 since then, no notifications.

So I actually had one from a PM from 2 days ago. Except it's part of a chain and I don't have a notification for the OP of the PM thread or the first reply, just the third reply (the second being me so no notification there, natch).

It's not just you ;)

I wasn't sure, but I don't remember seeing posts with anyone else complaining about it.

I got it once and I don't use PMs, like almost never.

It also happens if your post gets moved to a new topic and it becomes the OP: the whole topic is set to "Regular".
Which is inconsistent with opening a new topic which sets it to "Watching".
Also, notifications get resent, but that's a separate issue.

This seems to be working now at least.
