I have, but PMs from ignored people still show up in my PM box, they're just listed as "You are ignoring this poster." Or at least that's how older PMs are shown. Are you saying new ones won't show up at all?

Unread PM's are listed alongside read PM's but they are in Bold text.
So any pm's shown as Private Messages as against Private Messages, are classed as unread.

Your suggestion did get me to go out and try taking people off my ignore list, but doing so and reloading my PMs did not produce the mysterious 1 unread PM.
In fact, the internal tools for my PM box list my total PMs, both sent and received, as 698, but the external warning says: "Private Messages: Unread 1, Total 696." That's one more than my PM box counts, and this one more showed up at the same time as another, actual new PM from someone I was having a conversation with.
Huh...

Yeah, I checked, I have no bold PMs from the last month. I've been following my PM box pretty closely the last few days, so I'd have spotted a new one if it popped up.

Perhaps having nearly 700 PMs in your box ripped a hole in the space/time continuum... 
If I get more than 5 I start getting annoyed at the clutter and have to delete some.

*edit*
New unread PM is still being listed there, and I can't find one even with people taken off the ignore list. Huh.

Sam, I hope you don't hoard physical things like you do your PM's. I'd hate to think you have hundreds of boxes of laundry detergent or candy bar wrappers laying around the house. |

I don't specifically "hoard" them, as such, as electronic mail takes up no physical space, and removing it takes time and effort that produce no meaningful benefit. As such, I just rear my PMs and leave them alone.|

I did once have to clean up my PM box when we had to migrate from the old forums to the new and I had to drop them below 500 PMs, out of around 800, I think, and most of what I deleted was at the time five-year-old conversations with people who had long since left the game, like Anti-Catwhroog. My only criteria was to delete enough PMs, starting from oldest to newest, to get my PMs below 500. I probably have a lot more left that aren't at all relevant, but I haven't gotten around to cleaning them out.

(note to self: Sam did not deny anything about the laundry detergent or candy bar wrappers. hmmmmm)
Relax Samuel. I jest.
