 Replying to [comment:10 thomaswm]:
 > * When the user saves the settings, WordPress will call
 `update_site_option` (see
 [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/4.3.1/src/wp-
 admin/network/settings.php#L100 line 100 in settings.php]) which then
 calls `sanitize_option`.
 > * When `sanitize_option` decides that the user did not provide a valid
 email address, it will call `get_option( 'admin_email' )` and return that
 value (see [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/4.3.1/src/wp-
 includes/formatting.php#L3721 line 3721 in formatting.php]).
 > * This value will then be saved to the network options table by
 `update_site_option`.

 This bug will be fixed with #35379 being completed.
