Default How many emails do you read/answer in a day?

I was just wondering how many emails everyone reads/answer in one day? For example: I fire up my work computer this morning and i had 40 unread emails... Usually i will get an additional 50-80 on a normal day... Thank goodness my email box space has been up 200mb.... Seems like i am always answering emails or in meetings from 7am-6pm... Anyways just wondering what everyone elses email volume is like.... That is just work stuff, i get to personal ones when i get home....


Oh and last time i went on vacation for 1 week, i had 540ish unread emails....

Depends on how my projects are going...

If Im having a lot of problems with concrete breaks or rebar issues it can be close to 100, if everything is going smooth probably close to 20.

Usually about 40 or so when I get there on a normal day and way more when something breaks.
When we started up a new project a few months ago all of the emails from it came to us and it would be 50-80 emails a day just from that until we had an automated system set up to handle the load since it was just work that needed done within the system.
Thanks goodness.
