 Replying to [comment:45 dmsnell]:
 > Since you are not the only one using this language @michaelorlitzky, it
 makes me curious. Why do people say specifically that WordPress is
 “overriding” the return-path when it’s just //setting// the value through
 the intended and documented argument to `PHPMailer`?

 Semantics, but since I was using `sendmail -f` to set the envelope sender,
 it is now being overridden via the second `-f`.
