Comment (by galbaras):

 Workaround: Use filter instead of php.ini. See
 https://gist.github.com/elfacht/8147504 + replace `$phpmailer->From` on
 line 7 with the desired value.

 Having said that, the logic of this phpMailer change defies me. If anyone
 bothers to set a php.ini value, surely they mean for it to be used.
 @tigertech you might want to argue your case by opening an issue on
 https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer/issues.
