Comment (by desrosj):

 Working on figuring out why, but wanted to document the issue that I am
 currently having with this patch. I have tested this on fresh installs of
 `trunk` using both PHP 7.1 and PHP 7.2 using VVV.

 I have 3 test users:
 - One (the admin) with `en_US`.
 - One (contributor) with `ar`.
 - One (author) with `de_DE`.

 Submitting requests for each user only results in the confirmation email
 being sent to the administrator when the site default language is `en_US`.
 When the site is changed to `de_DE` as the default, no users receive
 emails.

 When using `var_dump()` on the PHPMailer object in `wp_mail()`, it shows
 `[ErrorInfo] => Could not instantiate mail function.`, and when using
 `var_dump()` on the `$mail_error_data` variable, it shows
 `phpmailer_exception_code` as `2`.
