I spoke too soon.  Right after reindexing:

Sep  1 09:30:44 server dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<tv>,
method=PLAIN, rip=192.168.1.1, lip=192.168.1.3, TLS
Sep  1 09:31:01 server dovecot: IMAP(tv): Maildir /home/tv/.maildir sync: UID
< next_uid (654 < 655, file = 1125581406.14218_2.server.duh.org:2,)

And I had to nuke the indexes again.
