[Wylug-help] Empty Directory is 1.2M

here's a weird one:

$ ls -lha
total 1.2M
drwx------    2 vpopmail vchkpw 1.2M Apr 26 11:57 .
drwx------  130 vpopmail vchkpw 8.0K Apr 26 14:08 ..

It's the 'cur' directory of a maildir - it was losing mail and eventually I 
moved the weirdly-sized directories away and made new ones. We've tried 
fscking the hard drive, and no change.

I don't mind admitting that it's a bit beyond my ken. It's an ext3 filesystem 
if that's any help.

Ta,

Dan
