I am also seeing problems with filtering (with mbox) in HEAD- more  
often than not messages do not get filtered at all on reception. Doing  
Mailbox -> Filters -> Apply takes a gawdaweful long time compared to  
2.0 and then sometimes puts messages in the wrong folder (??).

I use 2.0 and HEAD interchangably, so could it be that my configuration  
isn't being read correctly in 2.1?

And at last, a stupid question: Where does balsa keep its config  
nowadays? I tried moving away ~/.balsa/ yet the prefs stay the same,  
and IIRC that's where it used to be?

Anyways, keep up the good work,
