Author: Kelly Last Modified: 2024-11-01

For counting the total number of received emails on a specific date in Outlook, normally you can search by the date and get the total number at the Status bar. However, it seems hard to count received emails per day in bulk. Here, Kutools for Outlook releases the Statistics feature, which can help you not only count received emails per day/week/month, count selected emails, count items in all folders, but also report all counting results in charts.
