I am getting the red envelope sign on the right side here, as I had a message. But then I see it's not for me. For a few days now.

Have you ever clicked on the grey envelope icon found at the bottom right of every post and comment? If you do, then immediate replies to it show up in your inbox also. Look at the parent of one of these mysterious messages and see if its envelope is green. If it is, you can click it again to turn it off.

Thanks! I had done this, inadvertently.

If a reply to one of your comments is deleted before you read it, you'll be alerted but won't get the message. I believe the alert should go away once you check your messages, though.

I think if someone is responding to you in a very downvoted thread it might not show up in the your replies?
