Selecting weekdays from datetime

Howdy,

I have a database of mailing list entries where I would like to do
some statistics on activity on different days of the week. So say I
want to do something along the hypothetical lines of

SELECT COUNT(*) FROM table WHERE day_of_week(date) = 'Mon'

how do I go about doing that?

Martin
