Messages come from Slack API tester

Did you set RemoteNickFormat?
Try adding RemoteNickFormat="<{NICK}>"

Messages from other bots aren't getting relayed

If you're using WebhookURL in your Slack configuration, this is normal. If you only have Token configuration, this could be a bug. Please open an issue.
