Description:
------------
I receive no password-resetting link when attempting to reset the password for user "zrhoffman" at https://wiki.php.net/start?do=resendpwd .

I think this is a user-specific problem, as resetting the password for a throwaway account does work.

I do not think this is a duplicate of #76159, because it sounds like they do receive an email, and the error they mention is from https://wiki.php.net/?do=profile , which is irrelevant.

Test script:
---------------
curl --silent 'https://wiki.php.net/compact?do=resendpwd' -H 'Host: wiki.php.net' -H 'User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:60.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/60.0' -H 'Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8' --compressed -H 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' -H 'DNT: 1' -H 'Connection: keep-alive' --data 'sectok&do=resendpwd&save=1&login=zrhoffman' | grep success

Expected result:
----------------
Expect to receive a confirmation email, because "A confirmation link has been sent by email." is in the response.

Actual result:
--------------
No email received after 3 attempts.

I tried again today and I *did* receive the password reset email! I have not attempted this for a month or two, so no clue when exactly it started working. Closing...
