This is something we recently started doing. If email sent to your email address bounces with an error message like, "This email address doesn't exist", then your email may eventually be changed to u...@bounces.invalid. (It's not possible for users to change their email address to something ending in .invalid, so this can only be an administrative change.) Because your old email didn't exist, somebody could've registered your non-existent email address and used that to steal your account.
I didn't particularly intend for the trust warning to appear for these automatic changes, but it's a niche situation and a bit difficult to fix, so I probably won't fix this unless several other people complain. It only lasts 30 days, after all.

I think this was/is an excellent measure. I don't see anything wrong with this message, because it is an alert that the previous email is no longer being used, especially in accounts where the email is visible to the public.
Now, I really could have given some information about these security measures. Unless the measure is no longer new, and was reported at the time.
Continuation of a good work.
