I don't like this behaviour. Svn-trunk version supports many email addresses per contact. So, it should be fixed this way.
As a counterpoint. In our experience, squirrelmail users use the multiple contacts feature of SM more like RC groups. Not multiple addresses for 1 contact, but multiple contacts under 1 entry that all need to be emailed when composing a mail.
