 Replying to [comment:1 hakre]:
 > {{{wp_mail()}}}, the function which takes care of the include of {{{/wp-
 includes/class-phpmailer.php}}}, is a so called plugable function.

 load phpmailer a second time.

 > Additionally and more easily than writing your own mail function, you
 can hook into {{{wp_mail}}} filter and execute {{{$GLOBALS['phpmailer'] =
 new PHPMailer();}}}. That will prevent wordpress to include the file
 {{{/wp-includes/class-phpmailer.php}}}.

 big thanks, I did some digging in wp_mail of {{{/wp-
 includes/pluggable.php}}} and was able to figure out what to do.

 I set the ticket to 'wontfix'
