Take a look at mail2clf which creates a log-file of mail-messages it
gets. So you could pipe all incoming mails through it to get a log of
the incoming messages. And if you save all outgoing messages to
sent-mail, you could start a cronjob every night to pipe them through
mail2clf (with another logfile) and save them to another file (so as not
to count them twice). And when you are 70 and you still have your
maillogs, you can run those statistic-tools over this files to create
statistics, from whom you got mail, when you wrote most of your mails
and so on...

Just a suggestion. CLF btw are Common Log Files normally written by
webservers to get the hits on your server. But just take a look at it.
Works great for me... :)
