If the mailboxes contained a large amount of information then you may have to perform an offline defragmentation.
The ESEUTIL command can be used to perform this operation. However before running this command it is advisable that a backup must first be done and the information store service must be stopped.

To defragment the private information store perform the following:
eseutil /d /ispriv

To defragment the public information store perform the following:
eseutil /d /ispub
