I, along with everyone else on Community Central, currently have 41 spam highlighted messages in our notifications.

I've reported this problem in the past, but a spambot has just highlighted the highlight problem.

All of the spam messages have been deleted (not just "removed"), but the notifications remain.

The notification system should be fixed so that notifications are automatically removed when a highlighted message is deleted.

Yes, I know I can click "Mark all as read", but even after clicking "Mark all as read", the notifications are still there, grayed out.

Also, I forgot to scroll down to see if there were any genuine notifications at the bottom of the list, and now I will never know.
