That's message counts, not user counts...I'm too lazy to count users.
And it's only since I subscribed earlier this month.  :-)

Personally, I'm using Gnus (http://my.gnus.org/), which works quite
well - however, it runs under Emacs, and the learning curve is a bit
steep, so I'd only recommend it if you love Emacs, and have a day to
spend getting the thing to work and learning the keybindings... :-)
