Description: The total volume of messages transmitted since MTA initialization, measured in kilo-octets. This volume should include all transferred data that is logically above the mail transport protocol level. For example, an SMTP-based MTA should use the number of kilo-octets in the message header and body, while an X.400-based MTA should use the number of kilo-octets of P2 data. This includes messages that were transmitted to some other MTA or are waiting for delivery to an end-user or application.

What is mtaTransmittedVolume?

The total volume, in kilo-octets, of message data this MTA has transmitted since initialization, the outbound counterpart to mtaReceivedVolume.
