So, I set up a quick server running bitcoind. It has been running normally for a while, transferring between accounts within the system, as well as sending btc from the server to remote addresses, which is of course wonderful.

In any case, I tried to send a btc payment from the account "A" to a remote address from the server. The following transactions were done, from a starting balance of 0.01.

-0.0005 BTC -> Internal Account B
-0.0005 BTC -> Internal Account C
+0.0005 BTC <- Internal Account C
-0.0001 BTC -> Internal Account B
-1.0E-6 BTC -> Internal Account B
-0.001 BTC -> Outside of the system
-0.007899 BTC -> Outside of the system

Now the balance of Account A reads "-0.0005 BTC"

How is this possible? Account B now has 0.00060100 BTC.

Since the Accounts in bitcoind are just labels, you can use the Move command to adjust the balances so they reflect the "correct" numbers.
