I was just curious about this when checking my mail. Of the 10 emails I got today, two were notification emails for websites, one was a letter from College Board, and the other seven were asking me to take out a loan (one was dated March 17, 2007).

[EDIT: This counts stuff in your spam folder too]

About (maybe more than) 95% of all new messages are spam. Sometimes when I haven't checked my email in a month, I've received +30 new messages and all of them are spam (expect maybe one or two).

Hardly any. Aside from newsletters I don't remember signing up for and notifications of new student loans I should take out, my email is pretty clean.

Quite a bit.

Occasionally, I get a notification from Myspace saying that my girlfriend has messaged me, so that tends to be a pleasant break in the chain.
