Hi!

I just ran a report on the server stats, and I would like to know if anyone can define specifically for me one of the terms.

yr/mm        Posts     Recipients
2002/01       4679      6608498  
2002/02       4092      5630971  
2002/03       4561      6041308  
2002/04       3878      4901754  
2002/05       3462      4401531  
2002/06       3160      2683064

2002/07 
Extrapolated  3305      2143283 

There is my report. Now, what I want to know, and couldn't find in the manual (although maybe I just missed it - I need a glossary, really) is the precise definition of "recipients". I know my technical staff, and they will ask me these sorts of things:  "Do we really have the many subscribers? Is that individual subscribers? Is that how many were sent? So if I have two subscriptions, does this mean I got counted twice or would I get counted twice for every post that was distributed?"  etc. etc.

So, if anyone can define for me exactly what that is a measure of, I would be very grateful for the assistance.  :-)

TIA!

Shannon
