Hi, try enabling filtering log (Other->Logging page in preferences),
and then, after you receive some messages, look at the log (look in
main window's Tools menu).

Also, make sure that filtering on receive is enabled in your account's
preferences, on Receive page.

Yes, most likely it is the same issue as previously discussed.
Hopefully it will be fixed in next release, in a few weeks.
