Do you mean if I have something like:

@jeff1, @jeff2, @jeff3

then jeff1 will appear but not jeff2 or jeff3?

I would prefer to get them in a feed like the Twitter API provides (like in
a Status node). Will these appear in the replies Twitter API call?

They will appear in the Replies Twitter API feed.  However, they will
only be ones that begin with @user.  If @user appears anywhere else
(what I call (and several others) a "mention") it will not be in the
Replies feed...

I thought that those type of replies would show up under the replies
tab anyway (i.e. there doesn't need to be a relationship between two
users (in either direction) for a reply to show up in the replies
tab). I could be wrong, or maybe something changed...

However, if you head to http://search.twitter.com/ and search for
@user you will see all mentions of that user from all public accounts.
You can grab the resultant search as an RSS/Atom feed if you like.

Hello,

Is it possible to track replies sent to a user even though that user is
not
following that person? If so, how?

Jeff
