An account in bitcoin is not a wallet. As explained here (en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Accounts_explained), account is a way to categories the different addresses into groups within a wallet. Having said that, the setaccount method is not to transfer an address from wallet to another.

Hi, thanks for pointing out bitcoind, I find it very interesting. I tried setaccount but it doesn't generate a new wallet (wallet.dat file I can move to another computer), just a new "account" which is of no real use to me. In fact, the account which holds address I want to move to a new wallet, show a balance of several bitcoins when it should be zero, and another unnamed ("") account shows a negative balance, so it seems you can't use "accounts" to know neat balance of an address.
