Hey,

according to the this wiki page, account to account transfers don't have a tx fee:
Quote
Moves are not broadcast to the network, and never incur transaction fees; they just adjust account balances in the wallet.
https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Accounts_explained

However, when I do the move command using the JSON-PRC api on a Blockchain.info wallet, the transaction creates a fee. It moves the bitcoins around, but it subtracts the standard miner's fee.

Here's an example of a move transaction I executed (from one account to another that have been set on my wallet):
https://blockchain.info/tx/b079d4abc0ed38382ae1978b1462a291459cfc6160bf7060ce4f1fa9c3a29d44

 I don't understand this. It doesn't look right. Can someone explain how the move command is supposed to work? Is this maybe a problem with the Blockchain.info implementation?

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Blockchain.info wallets has nothing to do with bitcoind accounts.

bitcoind has everything to do with blockchain.info wallets if you're using one to connect to the other --> look

Blockchain.info offers an API that is largely compatible with the bitcoind JSON-RPC interface, but their internal implementation may be very different. Unless explicitly stated, I don't think you can assume that the Blockchain.info API behaves in the same way that bitcoind would.
