Grrr... SOFTWARE! ;-)

Followed the steps in your post, Bill, didn't get it to happen, then repeated the steps and got it to happen but couldn't figure out why. Have now repeated the steps several more times and no dice.

I got the inbox to show up one time, but every time since, clicking the "Perspective 8" (or what have you) icon in the toolbar leaves me with those two projects selected in the sidebar and no inbox visible.
