Comment (by pishmishy):

 I'd like to be able to close this particular ticket. It'd be nice to
 standardize on using get_option('admin_email') or "wordpress@" .
 $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] throughout but there'll be difficulty getting this
 right.

 People's hosts might refuse to send mail from the first because it's not a
 domain they're aware of, hosts may refuse to send mail from the second
 because the wordpress@ address doesn't exist.

 Could we document this in the code? If the issue appears again then this
 ticket can be found from the code. I'd be happy to close this ticket then.
