Perhaps it is also interesting to look at how many of the messages
were delivered to what type of server.

Out of the 3,016,454 messages in the sample, 484,010 were delivered
to servers running sendmail (16%) and 313,195 to servers running
qmail (11%).

This shifts the numbers in favor of qmail, which suggests that
large sites prefer to run qmail rather than sendmail.
