Average size of my current inbox is almost 300KB, but this is massively skewed because I have a bunch of large attachments hanging around. Average size of my archived inbox (i.e. no mailing lists, post-filtering of various sorts) is just under 40KB. In any case, 20MB seems... indicative of other problems. -dsr-
