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 joe at foo.com,liz at bar.org
