Let's see: Whole of 2007: - Archive is 1.3MB - 329 emails January 2008 to date (up to and including the message I'm repling to) - Archive is 1.8MB - 395 emails Approx[1]: --- 110 on the iPlayer --- 80 on the Mac OSX refund --- 50 on HTML email --- 30 "Freedom to take freedom" So there has been a big increase recently, but the size (in MB) is low from my perspective anyway. -- Matt [1] wget ftp://lists.gnu.org/fsfe-uk/2008-01; grep '^Subject: ' -i 2008-01 | sed -r 's/\[Fsfe-.*\]//g' | sed 's/Re://ig' | sed 's/Subject://' | sed -r 's/ +//g' | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr _______________________________________________ Fsfe-uk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/fsfe-uk
