Sure, the mail storage currently takes up 1.01TB, using dovecot's mdbox. This mail store started in January 2016, after the service got raided twice by german authorities[0] (at request of u.s. gov), otherwise it would be larger.
I'm not going to run like per-user stats but I know historically there's been about 11kb per E-mail on average, so that's about 90 million mails stored. The MTA itself sends and receives a bit over 20 million E-mails annually, so the extra from that is probably from the mailing list I run on the same server (where each message only counts as 1 for statistical purposes)
How I prevent outgoing abuse is a black box, but I do it well enough that mail from my server almost never ends up in spam. But given that it's a free service I definitely don't have the budget to warm up and dynamically scatter mail across IP space to maximize deliverability. Cool technique, though!
