Making sub-folder email reappear after recovery from backup

Can't find this mentioned in the docs or with any search I've done on 
the mailing list, so here goes:

- Upgraded from 2.4.10 to 2.4.16 after losing my 2.4.10 system, but 
having mail spool backed up
- After moving to the 2.4.16 system, able to see Inbox for accounts
- Had to make sub-folders reappear with command like (Thank you mailing 
list for that tidbit!):
   reconstruct -p default -rf user.gmarler.<Subfolder>

- Now I can see the Inbox, Subfolders, Sub-subfolders, etc in Thunderbird

BUT - Only Inbox has visible emails - All of the subfolders "appear" to 
be empty, but there are definitely mails in them on the mail spool.

Looks like I forgot a step somewhere.  Where have I gone wrong?
