 Technically, mail() on Windows can choke on from names. But wp_mail allows
 for a filter 'wp_mail_from_name' to change the default, which can also be
 used to correct this. wp_mail is also pluggable, so you can replace the
 whole thing.

 I wonder if a more recent version of phpmailer accounts for the lack of
 FromName support in windows mail()?
