Ok.  I stumbled across a forum post that made it clear that the 
~/Mail/.subscriptions is equivalent to my old ~/.mailboxlist file.  Now 
that I've manually updated .subscriptions to match and moved my mail 
around, I can see all the directories and their mailboxes again.

I'm still getting this error every time Mozilla starts up.  It's strange 
as my ~/Mail dir and all contents are readable only myself.  The only 
other file is /var/spool/mail/davis.
