Yeah, that makes sense.  What I originally reported was different, but 
perhaps related: I switched from one mailbox to another, and some 
messages seemingly come along for the ride, appearing (completely 
inappropriately) in the new mailbox.  I suspect it has something to do 
with switching from one smart mailbox to another.

Maybe it is related to what you said: I change the state of a message 
such that it no longer belongs in the smart mailbox I'm in but (as you 
said) it stays there until I switch.  Could that logic be causing such a 
message to be incorrectly shown even after I switch mailboxes?
