No need to use Get Info
Authored by: dshirley on Aug 28, '03 04:48:54PM

Since you're already in the shell, there's no need to go to the Finder, find the Mail folder and then do a Get Info on it. Instead, assuming you are in your home directory, type the following:

du -ks Library/Mail

This will give you a total disk usage figure in kilobytes for the mail folder. Run this before and after and glory in the difference!
