New description:

 For the `bp_send_email()` function:

 If you pass a user ID:

 `bp_send_email( 'activity-at-message', 1, $args );`

 The `{{recipient.name}}` token will return the name of recipient.

 ----

 However, if you pass an email address of a valid WP user:

 `bp_send_email( 'activity-at-message', 'test at example.com', $args );`

 The `{{recipient.name}}` token will be empty.

 Attached patch fixes this.
