I think user 2 is still watching the ticket. That's why he receives emails about updates.
Can you check ?

Yes, you are right - once the user2 was removed from project, issue which were watched by user2 did not remove him.

Issues - one can see who is watching and can be removed
Forum's - if i post a message in forum, user2 is still getting the message, after i removed user2 from the project.

But, all in all, you are right. It has to do something with "watching" status.

Thanks - let me know if more testing is required.

Also, is there a way for admin to remove users from watched list? Thanks

Fixed in r3167. Changing user permission now removes watchers lists accordingly.
You can use the following task to prune existing watchers from your database:

rake redmine:watchers:prune RAILS_ENV=production
