I had a similar problem wile I moved my mail from nnfolder to
nnimap. I had deleted several messages in a nnimap folder but Gnus
insisted in showing them anyway.

It turned out to be a problem with the Gnus agent. I could resolve the
problem by simply deleting the News/agent/nnimap folder so that Gnus
was forced to reread the complete contents of my mailboxes from the
IMAP server.

Maybe such a brute force "hack" resolves your problem too.

I would not consider me a guru but if my tip helps it's for good
anyway, I think ;-).
