Ergo: they have made the data available to at least one other person who you had not intended to be part of the exchange.
It's really quite simple.

The administrator only has access to the communications data if either:
a) the automated system keeps records of the raw unprocessed data
b) he alters the system so that it keeps records of the raw unprocessed data or forwards them in real time.
Unless and until one of these is true, I don't see it being an interception under the technical definition of RIPA.
(On a side note, I doubt phorm where that careful when they designed the system they used for the trials, but that could be hard to prove either way now)
