We use the following calculation to determine email staffing needs:

Volume/(response time goal/average handle time)=Agents

Or =100/(480/10) where 100 emails received have to be handled in 8 hours where the average handle time is 10 minutes. The staffing requirements in this scenario would be 2.08.

I hope this helps.
