Right now, this shows up at the top of my screen:

I have no idea why this is happening, if it is happening to anyone else, or what. I've checked them, and it shows nothing special, so it's not like 65,000 messages just appeared in my inbox. I've restarted my browser, signed out and in, tried another browser, and it stays the same. Why is this happening?

Have you at least tried to delete any message you have? That at least might effect it.

I hadn't thought about that, considering the number was just that big, and not even divisible by 59, but somehow it worked. Thanks. It would still be nice to know why that happened though.

Random math glitch, most likely.

What is 65535, anyway? That's the max amount of horizontal rows in Microsoft Excel.

65535 is the largest unsigned integer in 16-bit, according to my dad, who is a computer programmer.

Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/65535) explains it a little better.

65535 is a frequently occurring number in the field of computing because it is the highest number which can be represented by an unsigned 16 bit binary number.
There you go.
