Of course there is a Python script in the members section that folks can download and run IF they they are running Thunderbird or any other email client that uses Mbox email storage. And you have to be technically savvy enough to know where your mbox file for FFL is stored (not exactly rocket science). And you need Python installed. In fact I just rewrote that script because of its roundabout way of parsing the email headers. Python has a lot of different libraries and I found another one that did better parsing and simplified the script. The mail problem with using the script (and same for the server PHP script) is that sometimes your email host may put an FFL email in the junk folder online which can cause the count to vary slightly. This is particularly true with Yahoo's own email. The bigger problem is some folks tendency to knee jerk reply to a post when maybe it would help if they count to 10 first.
