Tried it. Seems OK. Not worth the access to data it required.<p>This post would do better on Reddit in dataisbeautiful or something.<p>Here&#x27;s an example scraped from Google: <a href="https://checkup.frontapp.com/9df36f035e474281931" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;checkup.frontapp.com&#x2F;9df36f035e474281931</a><p>More:<p><a href="https://checkup.frontapp.com/ef2358ade51b29fb9fe" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;checkup.frontapp.com&#x2F;ef2358ade51b29fb9fe</a> <a href="https://checkup.frontapp.com/1b68de2c4523717ee8a" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;checkup.frontapp.com&#x2F;1b68de2c4523717ee8a</a> <a href="https://checkup.frontapp.com/189bdd53fc517dcd1ee" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;checkup.frontapp.com&#x2F;189bdd53fc517dcd1ee</a> <a href="https://checkup.frontapp.com/72dd67265b3244f5b37" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;checkup.frontapp.com&#x2F;72dd67265b3244f5b37</a> (Rank 9)

Yeah, don&#x27;t think I am going to provide access to my inbox to some random website. Hell, I don&#x27;t think I would provide access to ANY website.

The red&#x2F;yellow&#x2F;green coloring to me seems to imply that you want to be above average with these metrics, but I&#x27;m not sure that above average is necessarily a good thing here. Things like &quot;response time&quot;, quicker is probably better, but &quot;emails sent&quot; — the two of the links from Mandatum had someone ending ~50 emails per day! It may very well depend on your job, of course, but to me, that&#x27;s too much even to receive in a day (I don&#x27;t want to read 50 emails.), and your email is going to be automatically sorted and likely ignored. &quot;Contacts reached&quot; also seems to imply higher is better, whereas I would think that more targeted conversations might be better. (But then, courtesy might demand CC&#x27;ing a list or a person in, so harder to say.) &quot;Emails per conversation&quot;: taking more emails to conclude whatever is needed is better? Not meeting face to face if email isn&#x27;t cutting it, or being clear and concise on the first email?

I just tried it out on an email address that doesn&#x27;t contain any sensitive information:<p>I think there is something off: gmail lets me browse to 50k+ emails (or conversations?), your tool reports around 1k emails received. I&#x27;m not sure that 50k number is accurate, but there are a lot more than 1k.

I have always been so nervous about my email habits that I would happily share my private email with a complete stranger in order to receive a ranking. I would feel even better if I could win a prize!

This is a pretty neat tool! Could only check my personal email. Company email uses Office365.
