Match if the message has any one or more of those recipients in the envelope.
Exim generally deals in envelope addresses unless explicitly stated otherwise.

If you need to match on multiple specific recipients then there
are other more complex conditions that can be built with the
condition modifiers.

Not an issue since its not working on header addresses.
