The Retail Email Index: The top online retailers sent each of their subscribers 3.9 promotional emails on average during the week ending Dec. 30, 2011. That’s down 31% week-over-week, down 30% from where it was four weeks ago, and up 24% year-over-year.

The Retail Email Participation Rate: Monday, the day after Christmas, was the most popular day to send retail emails last week.
