Is having received a little over 11,000 e-mails for work in a year a lot?  I'm just trying to figure out if I should be stunned by the number of e-mails I received or if it's just kind of normal.

It depends on your work.

I happen to have the stats for the email servers I maintain in front of me because we're in the middle of an upgrade. The median is 10 or fewer emails in a day BUT the average is around 20 emails, swayed upwards by a couple clients who run large companies and refuse to use spam filtering.

Wait, there are people who refuse to use spam filtering? I check my Postini account every other day for work and I can't imagine having that much crap in my work inbox every day. It's bad enough with the stuff that creeps through.

Yes, and I hate them, because trying to get the spam filter (which filters at a server level) to exclude their email accounts is a serious PITA.
