In the hobbit-alerts.cfg file, you could then have rules like
GROUP=web
   MAIL user-b7c20e0da76a@xymon.invalid
GROUP=admins
   MAIL user-04caac0eb454@xymon.invalid
 
The above notes in hobbit-clients.cfg explain for httpd process less than 5,
send alert to web(user-401205b5bf4b@xymon.invalid).
 
But I don't know what is the correct syntax to specify more than one recepients ?
 
is it "GROUP=web,web2,web3"
GROUP is a criterium, i.e. a way to select which alerts apply
to this rule.

MAIL is an action - what happens when the criterium is matched.

So "GROUP=web,web2" would match any definition in
hobbit-clients.cfg which had a "GROUP=web" or "GROUP=web2"
tag assosiated.

If what you want is to send the alerts to several people, then
you put those on the MAIL line. Like

   GROUP=web
        MAIL user-d083d77d33f5@xymon.invalid,user-dd634354da20@xymon.invalid
