What is mtaTransmittedVolume?
This counter reports, in kilo-octets, the cumulative data volume of messages the mail transfer agent has transmitted since initialization. Admins use it to track outbound bandwidth consumption over time and correlate it with network utilization graphs. A sudden drop in this counter's growth rate while mtaReceivedVolume keeps climbing would indicate outbound delivery is falling behind.
