The docs say:
"When a message is being received by SMTP, this variable contains the
number of RCPT commands received for the current message. If this
variable is used in a RCPT ACL, its value includes the current command."
Given that in the rcpt acl you are still receiving the list of
recipients, you cannot have the full list yet so you cannot
know how many the eventual total will be. On the last call
to the rcpt acl, the value will be the eventual total... but
you cannot know at that point that it will be the last one.
