Thanks Matthias, Jay... I gave that a shot and got an error:

mysql> select count(distinct email) from subscribes;
ERROR 1064: You have an error in your SQL syntax near 'distinct email) from
subscribes' at line 1

I have a feeling this has something to do with running 3.22 instead of 3.23.
;)

Whadya think?
