100 a day would be a pretty safe estimate and conservative. I had 169 by 10 AM yesterday.

It currently says: Starting: Thu Jul 1 12:47:11 CDT 2010 Ending: Fri Jul 30 21:51:51 CDT 2010 Messages: 73783 (and growing) If you assumed an average of 20 work days in a month, and an average of 2000 messages per month... you would be reviewing 100 email messages per day from this list alone. If you want/need more historical data, I can get the old server fired up and take a look at the original archive system, it also had messages broken out by month.
