Did a verison update just now. The inbox notification feature should work. Here are the fixes:

- Inbox flag indicator for new private message notification
- Remember my password added to the login form
- Bad IP list manager
- Confirmation buttons on certain admin tasks
- Allow users not to include their signature on post
- Tab order on POST form
- Allow HTML links in the announcements
- Additional message border color for denoting new messages

So don't freak out if you find out you have a lot of messages in your inbox :)
