Comment (by BjornW):

 In my case I've fixed this with this [https://wordpress.org/plugins/admin-
 email-as-from-address/ small plugin]. It uses the admin user's email
 address as a From address thus enforcing a working email address. For now,
 this is a workable solution for me at least until @jesin's patch or
 someone else's is accepted in WordPress. Hope this helps.
