 Hi @dcavins

 Here's how you can replicate the issue, add this code into a bp-custom.php
 file:

 {{{

 function override_bp_phpmailer_object() {
         if ( ! class_exists( 'PHPMailer\\PHPMailer\\PHPMailer' ) ) {
                 require_once ABSPATH . WPINC . '/PHPMailer/PHPMailer.php';
                 require_once ABSPATH . WPINC . '/PHPMailer/SMTP.php';
                 require_once ABSPATH . WPINC . '/PHPMailer/Exception.php';
         }

         $phpmailer = new PHPMailer\PHPMailer\PHPMailer( true );
         return $phpmailer;
 }
 add_filter( 'bp_phpmailer_object', 'override_bp_phpmailer_object' );

 }}}

 Then create a private group with a user and with another user, go to the
 group's landing page, and click on the Request membership Group's
 navigation (not the header's button).

 You should see a fatal ;)
