Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
There is an opt-out feature to "collect data locally". It tracks senders when an email is sent from Mail, to later suggest it for the recipient autoselection.
Describe the solution you'd like
Query matching recipients from the oc_mail_recipients table by joining messages and mailboxes tables for the user's Sent mailbox.
All data is there. It also works across email clients (which collected addresses doesn't).
Describe alternatives you've considered

Research direction
Start by locating the code for recipient autoselection and the local sender collector, then inspect how oc_mail_recipients, messages, and mailboxes are related. Verify the Sent mailbox filtering and compare the result with the existing collection behavior; done means matching recipients are suggested from the database across email clients without relying on the collector.
