Strange problem

Good morning all,
I ran into something last evening I had never seen before and wonder if any 
of you had. We have a user who had two folders with similar names in his 
share. One was mail and the Mail. Until yesterday he was able to save stuff 
in Mail and then retrieve it. However, yesterday something strange 
happened. The contents of both mail Mail were the same, at least on the PC 
side. When I went into the UNIX side and looked at things the contents were 
different. What I did to fix the problem was to move the folder called Mail 
to one called email and then he could see the files he had saved 
previously. I hope this makes sense and can anyone explain why this 
happened. He has been using the previous setup for several months with no 
problems.
Thanks,
