    Hi JM,

    Thanks for the welcome. I don't have the stats you requested, however I'll
    enquire to see if we can get this data. If I can, I'll post it to the
    list.

    Empirically I've seen between 25-50 messages a day over the past week.
    Hopefully we keep data on the trends over time... however, as our mail
    server sends out literally millions of mailing-list messages a month
    on 28 different mailing lists, this may be very hard to track.
