The find line finds files and executes du -sk on each (you can also use \+ for performance gain).
The format find spits out is :
NUMERIC SIZE OF FILE IN KB, followed by a tab and file(absolute path).

sed line matches everything to the last slash with regex, matching the path without the filename.
Code:
\(/.*/\)

Then replaces it with matched regex and tab char.
Code:
 &\t

Next code just replaces space with _ for the awk to work as desired
So
Code:
4<tab>/home/user/.claws-mail/claws.log

becomes
Code:
4<tab>/home/user/.claws-mail/<tab>claws.log

Basically now file is always $NF and directory where it resides is $(NF -1)

In awk i'm still in process of learning and not much of explaining , i did wrote that by looking at other examples and trying to figure out as much as i can to achieve needed output.

NAME

       claws-mail-bogofilter - Scanning mails for spam with Bogofilter.

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the claws-mail-bogofilter plugin.

       This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

       claws-mail-bogofilter is a plugin (loadable module) for the Claws Mail mailer.

       This plugin allows scanning incoming mails using bogofilter to decide if they are spam or not.

       Bogofilter can also be teached to recognise spam or ham messages with the corresponding menu entries.

USAGE

       Before using a plugin you must instruct Claws Mail to load it on startup.

       For this you must go "Configuration" menu on main window toolbar, open "Plugins..."  dialog, click on the "Load plugin..."  button and
       select the plugin file, named bogofilter.so, and press the "Open" button.

FILES

       /usr/lib/claws-mail/plugins/bogofilter.so
	   The loadable module for claws-mail-bogofilter.

BUGS

       Please use reportbug claws-mail-bogofilter for reporting Debian bugs for this package.

       The upstream BTS can be found at http://www.thewildbeast.co.uk/claws-mail/bugzilla/index.cgi.
