Great--thanks for testing!

Valgrind was showing some leaks, but they were also in master and not specific to the branch (scan-build found some more); I fixed all that I found, and rebased the branch to include the fixes. Both master and the branch are mostly Valgrind-clean now.

Haven't had a chance to dig into those yet.

> I don't think I would even have noticed the other problem you mentioned in the issue log, as I don't hide deleted messages, but do expunge on closing a mailbox and after 120 minutes.  It also appears that deleted messages get expunged on closing Balsa - hopefully that counts as closing the mailbox and not a bug.

Yes, closing Balsa involves closing all open mailboxes, so if you set expunge-on-closing-mailbox you automatically get expunge-on-closing-Balsa.
