Outgoing Messages Delivery (Linear)

- The tracking of messages delivery status is only up to 30 days. So for an example, if a message gets read only after 30 days, the delivery status will no longer be updated to Read.
- If Contacts have turned off Read Receipts on the WhatsApp app's privacy setting, messages they have read will not be reflected in the Read metric. Instead, they will be reflected in the Sent and Delivered metrics. This may cause a discrepancy between the number of Read and Delivered messages.
