This is as documented, but perhaps the documentation should be clearer. The
documentation for the -bv option contains this paragraph:

    If the -v option is not set, the output consists of a single line for each
    address, stating whether it was verified or not, and giving a reason in the
    latter case. Otherwise, more details are given of how the address has been
    handled, and in the case of address redirection, all the generated
    addresses are also considered. Without -v, generating more than one address
    by redirection causes verification to end successfully.


I will try to make this clearer when I next revise the manual.
