Hi John,
Thank you.

For my system shows like below.
df -h

Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda2       909G  576G  287G  67% /
tmpfs           3.9G     0  3.9G   0% /dev/shm
/dev/sda1       3.9G  160M  3.5G   5% /boot
/dev/sdb1       916G  382G  488G  44% /bkhdd

First hard disk /dev/sda
Second hard disk /dev/sdb

The problem is in first hard disk show above size but my email box folders
having below result.

du -hs /*
8.0K    /backup
7.5M    /bin
*382G    /bkhdd*
89M     /boot
4.0K    /cgroup
4.0K    /command
208K    /dev
79M     /etc
*386G    /home*
4.0K    /isoqlog.domains
322M    /lib
20K     /lost+found
4.0K    /media
0       /misc
4.0K    /mnt
0       /net
64M     /root
14M     /sbin
4.0K    /selinux
4.0K    /service
4.0K    /srv
680K    /tmp
4.3G    /usr
1.9G    /var

Here

/bkhdd is mount in /dev/sdb

/home is mount in /dev/sda

But the size is not match in /dev/sda
