Yes, I'd seen that thread, but there's a post from BBR in there from some 8 years ago indicating that it shouldn't be doing this

That was fixed some time ago. Message indicators should now only light up for Groups that a player can see.
(Version 1.8.52 - November 2011 and version 1.8.53 - June 2012)
...and another later in the thread from jase seven years ago stating that the original issue from that particular thread should /also/ be fixed. (Or at least I'm guessing that end-user testing took place somewhere in the intervening seven years between then and now - hopefully!)

Ghost indicators for unofficial lurkers is fixed in the next version, which is waiting on end-user testing.
Hence my query, since the issue /shouldn't/ be occurring, according to what I could find. =)
If it's supposed to /be/ fixed, it's not, on either responsive or the old site...
