Messages button not working

I'm not getting notifications to the email I have on file when a reply has been posted to a message I have left. While that's not too big hardship (and I m triple checking the spam filters), when I log in and go to messages, it only seems to show me messages to one particular user.

To see the threads I'm involved in I have to go into my profile, go to forum preferences and then click on the "Posts" link. Here I see all the messages I have left (or perhaps "replys" is a better word) and topics I have started. But when I click on the link for one of those replies it just shows me that message on its own. If I go back and hit it again, and then again only then do I get sent to the thread that message is part of.

Do we really have to dig this deep to find the threads that we are actively participating in?
