New description:

 $phpmailer->Sender line prevents comment notifications from being received
 on hosts that do "callout verification" unless wordpress@[domain] is a
 valid email address.

 WORKAROUNDS

 Ensure, that the email address wordpress@[domain] is a valid email
 address.

 OR

 Remove wp-includes/pluggable.php file in WP 2.3.1:

 {{{
 228  $phpmailer->Sender = apply_filters( 'wp_mail_from', $from_email );
 }}}
