  Our University Network is going to be connected to the
  outside world through BITNET, and I am writing a short
  internal paper to discuss the advantages of accessing
  the Internet through Email.
  Anybody can give an estimate of theses  numbers? :
  number of hosts on Internet
  number of mailboxes on Internet
  and even harder:
  Total number of mailboxes reachable through internet
  and connected networks.
  Of course, I don't expect precise numbers.
  Thanks
