Indeed it is -- email mix varies *a lot* across people, and this is one of
the only projects I know of that tests with multiple real-life personal
corpora.  Your mix may not be like mine, but I bet it's like thousands of
others (as is mine, but a different bunch of thousands) -- all testing is
appreciated here, and the greater the variety the more sure we can be that
changes are truly winners.
