Submarines sunk by merchants

The submarine HMS Rainbow was likely (accidentally) rammed and sunk by the Italian steamer Antonietta Costa on 4 October 1940. That was an accidental collision, but I came to wonder, how many submarines (of any nationality) were sunk by merchants (by ramming or other way) during the two World Wars?
