My  take  on RFC 3842 is that Messages-Waiting: is a 'new' messages flag
only  and  the  presence of 'old' messages are only communicated via the
xxx-Message: lines.

In particular "3.11. Rate of Notifications" where it has the phrase
   " ...which do not affect the overall message waiting state
    (e.g., there are still new messages)."
