Comment (by agulbra):

 Test 4/n

 **Environment:** WordPress on the tip, after August 20 or so and with
 https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/pull/5237 applied. You need
 no plugins. You may use Mailpit 1.25.0 or later to pick up outgoing mail.
 Mailpit needs to listen on localhost port 25. The installer has been run,
 but nothing added.

 I used Brave as browser and ran both on linux.

 **Steps to test:** Open the WordPress admin page. Select "users" on the
 left-hand bar, then "add new user" near the top of the screen. Enter "grå"
 as username, "grå@grå.org" as email address. Choose any name and role.
 Click "add new user" near the bottom. (Grå is Norwegian, it means grey,
 and I use that as a test since I'm Norwegian. It's pronounced as org
 backwards.)

 Click Users, select the user and click edit. You're now on .../user-
 edit.php. Scroll down to Account Management and click 'Password Reset'.

 **Test results:** All is well if WordPress sends email to grå@grå.org with
 a new link, and clicking the link brings up the password reset page.
 WordPress 6.8 will not send the mail.
