Here is some data from the postfix entries in my maillog files. This
table lists every message that was delivered by Postfix to Mailman for
posting to a list. The table in in the form

Date
   list name
       post size in bytes
       post size in bytes
       ...

It is sorted by date, list and size. These are posts delivered to
Mailman. The size of the post as sent to the list members may be
significantly smaller due to content filtering (typically less than
half this size due to removal of HTML from multipart/alternative). In
some cases, the post may have not been sent to the list members at
all.

If you want the data aggregated by size, you can do that as well as I.

Obviously, this server is not heavily used, but in case you are
interested anyway, here are the data.
