Here's a interesting graph (to me, at least). I run my mail server so I have access to its stats...

Graph of email spam

Received emails are those that reach my inbox. Rejected emails are ones that are cast into the void for being obvious spam. My spam filter is not aggressive at all — it doesn't even look at the content of emails, only the headers, so you can write v14gra into the email 50 times and it will still be received.

Average figures for this period were 17.8 received/day and 430.9 rejected/day. I love spam.
