Same problem here. Some of the directories this happens with contain 
sub-dirs. When starting Balsa, the sub-dir entries are duplicated as 
well, and if the sub-dir happens to be open, duplicate entries of 
mailboxes are shown for both instances of the subdirs, like this:

Main Folder
	Dir A
		Open Subdir
			Mbox A
			Mbox A
			Mbox B
			Mbox B
		Open Subdir
			Mbox A
			Mbox A
			Mbox B
			Mbox B
	Dir B
		Closed Subdir
		Closed Subdir
		Mbox C
		Mbox C
		Mbox D
		Mbox D

Rightclicking on a folder and "Rescan" seems to help. After rescanning 
"Dir A", the duplicate sub-dir entry is gone, but the entries inside 
"Open Subdir" are still duplicates, so one has to rescan "Open Subdir" 
as well:

Main Folder
	Dir A
		Open Subdir
			Mbox A
			Mbox A
			Mbox B
			Mbox B

I didn't find anything strange in my config. If you want to, I could 
send it to you privately for inspection.
