Emails that I read? Somewhere around 25. Emails that I keep? Over 100.

I'm on several mailing lists (most notably FreeBSD commitmail) where I don't read everything, but still keep emails for future reference.

Oh, and the above doesn't count ~40 cron emails per day, which I usually "read" to the extent of scrolling through them quickly just in case there's something unusual in them.



I average about 50 messsages daily; this covers several OpenBSD lists.

It's a bit much, and not all of them are proper e-mail messages (one-line commit messages...)
