I'm afraid you are right ! We have also noticed that RECOVERED msgs do not get sent to GROUPs (using Xymon-4.3.2)

Aye, there is nothing wrong with that.
Anyway, I think this is a BUG.
Xymon Version 4.3.3. Configuration as follows:
analysis.cfg: HOST=myhost.mydomain.com <http://myhost.mydomain.com> GROUP=heather PROC TESTtestTEST 1
(equally, you could have the GROUP entry on the PROC line, doesn't matter in this instance as the result is the same)
alerts.cfg: HOST=* MAIL heather1 at mydomain.com <mailto:heather1 at mydomain.com> RECOVERED
GROUP=heather MAIL heather2 at mydomain.com <mailto:heather2 at mydomain.com> RECOVERED
When the alert is generated, both e-mail addresses get the notification. But when the alert is cleared, only heather1 at mydomain.com <mailto:heather1 at mydomain.com> gets the recovery message.
I've tried lots of different configuration options, and the only conclusion I can come to is that recovery messages to GROUPs do not work. :(
