Description
When a user is added and removed from the project, after removing the user from project - he still keep on getting email regarding that project.
- Create project
- Add user 1
- Add user 2
- Add user 3
- Enabled "Message Add" in Admin
- Create form and start conversation
- Email goes to all user's
- Remove user 2 from project
- Email is still going to user 2 about form updates, even user 2 is not part of the project.
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
