Comment (by dd32):

 This was a [https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/5260 change in
 bbPress2.6] whereby all subscribers to a thread are emailed with a
 singular email BCC'd, rather than the previous behaviour of individual
 emails for each subscriber (which didn't always scale).

 We can switch this back to sending individual emails if preferred,
 question is do we really need to?
 We may also need to do this to ensure that emails actually get sent
 though, as noted in the above change, some servers have limits to the
 number of BCC's allowed (I'm not sure what the w.org email servers limits
 are)

 The code to filter it would be something hooked to `wp_mail` doing
 something like..
 {{{
 if ( $to == 'noreply at ..' && !empty( bcc ) ) {
    foreach ( bcc ) {
       wp_mail( bcc, $other_args )
    }
   return false;
 }
 }}}
