@nixos.org email infrastructure has been migrated from improvemx to our own emailserver

To make self-service easier and be less restricted by limits when sending out larger amounts of emails, we migrated to our own E-Mail server.

If you happen to own an @nixos.org address, you can test now if you email alias still works as expected.
As the email server is quite new we expect that some email server might put our forwarded emails into spam for a some time, so please check also the spam folder and move it out of spam to train the spam filter.

Thanks @jfly for doing the work.

Your infra team.

We had to roll this back for a couple days due to an email deliverability issue (see Revert "Switch our MX record(s) from ImprovMX to `umbriel.nixos.org`" by jfly · Pull Request #621 · NixOS/infra · GitHub for details), but I’m happy to announce that we’ve addressed the underlying issue and just re-launched the mailserver (Roll out umbriel as our mailserver (again) by jfly · Pull Request #624 · NixOS/infra · GitHub)!
