 This is the e-mail that I sent to GoDaddy after troubleshooting for 2
 weeks with them regarding my e-mails not reaching my inbox when sent from
 WordPress.  I upgraded 2.3.3 right when it came out, but it just occurred
 to me that the two dates of my e-mails not getting sent and my upgrade to
 2.3.3 were on the same day.  I tracked it down to this one line
 highlighted below.

 Hi guys,

 I found the problem.  It is one line of code that looks pretty
 inconsequential in the WordPress source.  It is part of the WordPress
 2.3.3 emergency release.  It doesn't even make sense why this would stop
 my e-mail from being sent correctly on GoDaddy.  But this is probably
 something for you developers to look at:

 WordPress 2.3.2 (/wp-includes/pluggable.php:line 227)

 {{{
 // Set the from name and email
     $phpmailer->From = apply_filters( 'wp_mail_from', $from_email );
     $phpmailer->Sender = apply_filters( 'wp_mail_from', $from_email ); //
 problem line
     $phpmailer->FromName = apply_filters( 'wp_mail_from_name', $from_name
 );
 }}}

 WordPress 2.3.3 (/wp-includes/pluggable.php:line 227)

 {{{
 // Set the from name and email
     $phpmailer->From = apply_filters( 'wp_mail_from', $from_email );
     $phpmailer->FromName = apply_filters( 'wp_mail_from_name', $from_name
 );
 }}}

 I don't know why not setting the Sender in the mail message would make a
 difference but it does when the e-mail is passing through the GoDaddy
 system.

 Please file this bug over to your developer that work on e-mail forwarding
 or SMTP so they can further troubleshoot when not including the sender
 would stop an e-mail from being sent.  Also you can close out my ticket.
 Everything is now working.
