What we do with our user's home directories as an example is simply use the du
command which gives us output like this:

4       ./idc/mail
28      ./idc
7       ./fido/mail
8       ./fido/html
1       ./fido/.tin/.news
1       ./fido/.tin/.mail
1       ./fido/.tin/.save
27      ./fido/.tin
1       ./fido/Mail
1       ./fido/News
1877    ./fido
1       ./orders/mail
22      ./orders
1       ./sysadmin/.tin/.mail
1       ./sysadmin/.tin/.save
1       ./sysadmin/.tin/.news
26      ./sysadmin/.tin
1       ./sysadmin/Mail
1       ./sysadmin/News
798     ./sysadmin
66775   .

Then I guess if needed you could create a quick perl script to eliminate sub
directories and then email the report or dump it to file?  For our needs (we can
our shell access server once a week for example) we don't need anything fancy
and this works fine..:)
