Saved Search Folder Results in Dup Messages

I have a folder created from a saved search. It shows all unread messages across all my folders. It's by far the folder I use the most often. I often scroll through it and sort the messages into other folders. But when I move a message, I often end-up with 2 copies: one stays in the original folder and a second appears in the folder I moved the message to. (I'm not using COPY, just MOVE). Any idea what's going on or how to fix it?

UPDATE: I guess I can't edit my original message. I wanted to add that when I go into the destination folder, there's only one copy of the message and when I check the original folder, the message is no longer there (as is correct). So it seems that the saved search is slow to update. It shows the message as still existing where it was moved from but also where it has been moved to, at the same time.
