I've got 2 years worth of the DOpus5 mailing list archived away on CD, a total
of about 8500 emails.

One day I'll use them to make a DOpus5 FAQ, one day. :)

Being on 30 or so mailing lists, some Amiga related some not, I often have
several thousand in total in the various folders. though most folders are set
to auto delete after 14 days.
