What is mtaTransmittedRecipients?

This counter tracks the total number of recipients specified across all messages transmitted since the mail transfer agent was initialized, counting only recipients this MTA is responsible for. Comparing it to mtaReceivedRecipients lets an admin verify that recipients queued for delivery are actually being sent to, not silently dropped. A stalled or slow-growing value here while mtaReceivedRecipients keeps rising indicates recipients are backing up undelivered.
