PHPMailer.
There is something weird here, because the absence of the `Sender` doesn't
change that much. I tested back in the day thoroughly with a ton of
different live servers with and without the `Sender` address and I could
not see any real changes.

I'm debugging this further, because I have a hunch that there is something
problematic on the PHPMailer's side and that `sendmail_from` could be
related (not certain though). If you say it's not changing anything at
all, there is something unexpected here.
