I mean message size seen when using 'chdir' as I'm comparing what I see
using mbox, for example:-
-> ../ 1024 drwxr-xr-x
advertising 25401 -rw-------
andrewRound 50469 -rw-------
edSirrett 18591 -rw-------
and what I see using maildir:-
-> ../ 1024 drwxr-xr-x
jobDesc/ 1024 drwx------
julieFryatt#/ 1024 drwx------
mail/ 1024 drwx------
news/ 1024 drwx------
randr/ 1024 drwx------
richardWyndham/ 1024 drwx------
things/ 1024 drwx------
timesheets/ 1024 drwx------
vivienneBush/ 1024 drwx------
web/ 1024 drwx------
