Well mbox delivery and imap filtering aren't even closely related.

Could be a number of things, but generally the mail server isn't sending recent flag notifications for recent messages, or another simultaneous client is getting them instead.  Another alternative is you just turned on that setting but haven't restarted evolution yet.  Some setting changes require a restart of evolution.
