 Notifications from Slack that are forwarded via a virtual address on the
 chat.wordpress.org domain get discarded by some email providers that check
 SPF and DKIM more thoroughly.

 One of the best know domains that recently raised the bar is hotmail.com.

 We should consider replacing the FROM address to and address in our "chat"
 domain.

 This also means that our server can't just forward these emails. It will
 need to also recalculate the DKIM key (I suppose). So this isn't a
 trivial, change, but still quite urgent.

 Here is one example:
