Inform users when they break the build

[sveneh]

Came up on our last standup meeting. Can we have an email if a check-in failed the build? This email goes only to the one doing the code check-in, and only if the build fails.

buildbot has a MailNotifier, but it only sends to all users in a changeset (blamelist) or specific emails. It would be too spammy and there's no way to manage opt-ins and opt-outs for that. Users that want to be notified should go on IRC in #ethereum-dev

[jorisbontje]

I would suggest to use mailinglists instead (ideally per project). That way users can control their own opt-in/outs; setup filters; etc.
