What appears in the list are the original addresses. All Exim keeps is
a list of original addresses and a list of all addresses that are
finished with.

The only states that can easily be shown are those that already are,
namely "this address is finished with" and "this address is not finished
with". When an address generates child addresses, it (the parent)
becomes "finished with" only when all its children are "finished with".
Subsequent delivery attempts then ignore the parent.
