[wp-hackers] mb_send_mail removed?

[Carthik Sharma]

I guess the mb_send_mail was causing the password notification emails
to be sent as Base-64 encoded data, which was the case with me, for
sure, and this was causing a lot of heartache for ordinary users who
aren't savvy enough to change the source befofre resetting their
passwords, which is why this must have been take out.
