Not sure if a bug, but the recently updated dashboard seems to not reflect the number of unread conversations ATM...

After I received an email confirming that I had 'New conversation message received', but my dashboard did not reflect same.

Yes I hit refresh/reload to double-check

and the Unread Conversations dashboard link still displayed 'No unread conversations...' 

Yes I hit refresh/reload to double-check, here too!

We raised the missing counter over the weekend and were advised that it was taken down for performance. We received advice that it will be put back in R8.1.2
