mtaReceivedRecipients

Module: MTA-MIB

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.28.1.1.7

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Description: The total number of recipients specified in all messages received since MTA initialization. Recipients this MTA has no responsibility for, i.e. inactive envelope recipients or ones referred to in message headers, should not be counted even if information about such recipients is available. This includes messages transmitted to this MTA from other MTAs as well as messages that have been submitted to the MTA directly by end-users or applications.

What is mtaReceivedRecipients?

A running count of all recipients named across every message this MTA has received since initialization, useful for an admin tracking recipient-level load rather than just message counts (one message can have many recipients).
