I have deduplication active in my first mdbox: type mailbox, but how do I find out how well the deduplication works? Is there a way of finding out how much disk space I saved (if I saved some :) )?

You could look at the files in the attachments directory, and see how many links they have. Each file has 2 initially. Each additional link has saved you <size of file> bytes of space.
