 I have a fresh install of 2.5, but was not getting any user/password
 related emails.  I tracked this down to line 352 of pluggable.php which
 sets the FromName on the $phpmailer object.  When this value is set, it
 causes email to be lost.  When this value is set to null, then the email
 sends correctly.

 php.ini is setup to use a remote SMTP server:

 {{{
 [mail function]
 ; For Win32 only.
 SMTP = 127.0.0.1
 smtp_port = 25
 }}}

 Here is the modified code:


 {{{
 // Set the from name and email
   $phpmailer->From = apply_filters( 'wp_mail_from', $from_email );
   $phpmailer->FromName = null; // <== this line changed
 }}}
