Most miles posted in one statement?
I typically earn around 5-10K miles per month, sometimes 20K depending on travel schedules and credit card purchases.
To my surprise, when I checked Mrs Deltahater's account today, she earned 74,408 miles since last statement.
It is a combination of flying, credit cards and bonus/promo miles. I never had anything near that high. I am mighty pleased.
What have others gotten, especially those who work for Fortune 100 companies and fly on paid F/J and can get those 30K/40K/50K miles bonus promotions?

I'm sure there will be others with more...
As of today I've had 100,111 RDM post in May.
I expect a few more... PUQ-SCL-MIA-DFW-LAX and 2 more LAX-BOS-LAX should get me to 171,457 RDM for the month. This is from 49,905 BIS miles; we've played the bonus and promotion game pretty well...
I eneded April with roughly 380,000 lifetime RDM -- this has been an excellent month.

BIS: 33,311
RDM: 110, 432
Results from my TATL and LAX-BOSx4 MR, mostly in Y
FWIW I am anticipating 45K+ RDMs in both July and August. (I just hope my company allows me to travel on OW)

Neither very recent, but my entries are:
- The month all my TWA miles, which included AmEx MR points I moved to AA through this one-time loophole, posted on AA: around 250,000.
- The month the 100,000-mile bonus from oneWorld's "Six Continents" promo posted, plus whatever other miles I had earned that month, for a total a bit over that.
I'm not sure either of these is what the OP had in mind, but since the thread title is "Most miles posted ..."

(Breaking that down- I'd better go burn some soon before they devalue again

over 398k in 1 month on Chase Mileage plus, back when giving double miles on all purchases for 8 weeks promo in 2007.
Several >200k in 1 month, (spent just as quickly)
on US air - BOFA and Juniper both pooling in the same account
