Comment (by humdinger):

 I'm afraid I have accidentally somehow removed the corruption...[[BR]]
 As seen from the checkfs output above, the corruption was rported to be in
 the folder "in" (which is a mail folder). In order to narrow in the
 affected files, I created three folders on the same partition - "A1",
 "A2", A3" - and moved into each 1/4 of the mails from "in". I then renamed
 "in" to "A4".[[BR]]
 A new run of checkfs showed the misbehaving inode in folder "A4". I
 proceeded to create new folders  - "A4B1", "A4B2", A4B3" - moved again 1/4
 of the mails of "A4" into those, and renamed "A4" to "A4B4".[[BR]]
 Another run of checkbfs now shows no errors at all(!).

 What's going on? Can the number of files in a folder have an influence?
 The "A4" folder had around 10.000 files in it.
