Comment:

 I'm not even convinced this is actually a bug.  Allowing just anyone to
 put in "admin" and "admins email" and then leave comments that are
 essentially marked as being from that person is not a great idea.

 Rather as the other ticket said they should have to log in, to gain such
 recognition.

 Recommend closing this as i'm-not-sure-what.
