I think there's information in here but I can't see it. What do you mean
"with address such as [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; etc.", exactly?
Do you mean messages that had
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]
or
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]
or
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
and others with
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
or what?
In the first case, I *think* that's an illegal address; AFAIK, ';' is not allowed in an
email address; but if not, it's effectively the same as the second case.
In the second case, that's multiple addresses on one To: line, which includes
the list address you gave, so shouldn't be a problem.
In the third case, the first message is to the list, so shouldn't cause a problem, but
the
second message is *not* to the list, and will definitely cause a problem.

??? "Implicit destination" means, as has been said, "the list address is not mentioned
in To: or Cc:"; the *number* of recipients doesn't affect and isn't affected by
the *content* of recipients. No, this has nothing to do with the problem of
seeing messages held for approval because of implicit destination addresses.
