I'm not getting any errors or warnings as far as I can tell, and I don't think 
the UIDs are changing unexpectedly -- messages are not getting re-downloaded 
randomly.  That is, everything SEEMS to be working fine, as far as I can tell.

So many people still use mbox that I hope we can fix this issue.

I'm happy to help test or provide further debug output... this problem is 
certainly reproducible here, and it seems like lbutlr has a similar problem, so 
hopefully we can address at least this one...

(I'm also happy to give you the Junk mailbox and index files... there's nothing 
sensitive in my spam!)

Cheers.
