** Figures were obtained by Jicmail between Q2 2017 and Q4 2017; and in 2017 by Kantar TNS.
The source adds the following information on methodology: "The sectors for mail were developed with the consumers filling in the diary in mind. Four waves of testing helped to define sectors that panelists would understand and not based on out-dated standard industry classifications. These classifications have been shortened for the purposes of charts within this presentation. We do not capture any items categorised as being from Family member or friend, Employer, Other or Didn't Open or Read."
