It’s easy to work out, take the formula (that I just made up):

S / ( P x A ) = M

Where:
S = Total number of spam emails that you have
P = Period that they were collected over
A = Num of accounts collected from
M = My spam index

I use gmail so this calculation is easy:

S = 11,242 in my spam filter right now
P = 30 days (as it auto deletes after 30 days)
A = 2 (the main gmail account plus my 8+ yr old bealers.com email account)

M = 11242 / ( 30 x 2) = 187.37

So there you have it, my spam index is 187.37.

What’s yours?
