    find is your friend here.
    man find
    Their is a lot of options about size and time.
    This will not give you the total size of email, but you can make the sum using
    some additional scripting.

    Be careful if you use singleinstancestore: 1 in imapd.conf and the suitable
    configuration in your SMTP, some email delivered to multiple mailbox
    are stored only once on the filesystem. find will report any links to
    these emails
    and you will count them twice or more.
