http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4979. Windows-based SMTP servers can't handle the "John Smith john@smith.org" email address format, and croak on it. The workaround in comment #2 on the referenced URL should help.
Windows SMTP servers violate RFC2822, huh?
Upon reading one of the Notes on http://uk.php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php, it seems it's not the Windows SMTP server, but PHP's incompetent parsing, since it handles headers in the message differently under that platform.
