Comment (by pishmishy):

 westi, despite owning the ticket I've not really been following it.

 I'm a little confused by the relationship between this bug and #5273. Both
 seem to be problems caused by sending e-mail from "wordpress@" .
 $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] when $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] isn't necessarily a
 valid domain for sending mail. I guess there are also circumstances where
 it's not valid to use admin_email either. I think that makes solving these
 two tickets mutually exclusive.

 What I might be tempted to suggest is standardizing on one address or the
 other and pointing out in the install process that the address must be
 valid for that server. Perhaps I'm just confused though =)
