Cyrus does not show you what is on the filesystem, but rather what
folders the user has access to.
The plain sent-mail is probably a stray folder under the Cyrus root
and the INBOX.sent-mail is probably this user's sent-mail folder,
the one you see on the filesystem under .../user/xss.
You can see this if you telnet to the imap port, login as that user,
and then do a list command. If you run the Cyrus server you might
also do a "ctl_mboxlist -d" and look for the sent-mail that is not
under any user, or, use cyradm and compare "lm user.xss.sent-mail"
to "lm sent-mail".
