* In case of delivery problems, bounce messages will be sent back to the

kept private.
As a workaround for such configurations I've introduced a config var
$wgUserEmailUseReplyTo. When set, a wiki-specific address is used as
'From', and the user's address is put in 'Reply-To'.
This is uglier -- you don't see a clean 'Sender' column in your mail
client -- but mails will get through and private data won't get tossed
around inappropriately.
Brion, thank you for finding a fix for this severe bug. Could you please
clarify for the technically less advanced (i. e.
me), if your workaround is already
installed in all wikimedia-projects of if there are further steps to
be taken in order to fix this bug on all wikis?
Best regards
