And the answer is in that thread:
http://marc.info/?l=imp&m=113298545621245&w=2

Although I should really change the parameter name - the 'index'  
parameter to message.php is actually the IMAP UID.  So if you pass  
mailbox.php a mailbox name and the UID (via the 'index' parameter),  
things will work fine.

Note: Do *NOT* pass in the IMAP message sequence number - this won't  
work and won't ever be supported.
