This happened with 7.6 beta, and now with 8 beta. Under 7.6, I did try
recreating newsgroups and RSS feeds.

Quite often, new RSS feed "messages" will also appear in various
newsgroups. i.e. a Slashdot item may end up in both "Newsfeeds/Slashdot:"
AND in "News at news.opera.com/opera.beta". If I do a "Mark all as read"
in opera.beta, it will also mark those items as read in newsfeeds.

I have so far been unable to figure out any relationship between content
and which messages bleed through to incorrect categories.

I don't use M2 for email, and haven't defined any filters.

I've seen similar and identical phenomena with M2 also. It is disturbing,
to say the least. The indexing is in much overdue need of being made more
stable and robust.

I have experienced this as well and I have not been able to discern a
pattern. For no apparent reason, newsfeeds will start appearing in
newsgroups, e-mail messages which have no relationship to a mailing list
will show up in a mailing list view, etc. It is one of the things about
M2 which bugs me, but not enough to abandon it.
