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.
