 * Logs are rotated every week, rotations was set at 0 (didn’t check this on my 
   host – I guess you don’t until you need them), and it’s already been rotated,
   so I don’t have the access logs for this date.
 * Being optimistic, I’m leaning towards one of the kids using the same computer
   I used, simply because I can’t work out how anyone might breach the post process,
   especially with the admin role.

 * Good thought.
 * But the email settings were the default, i.e. example.com so this would be unlikely
   I guess.
 * Also, do you need to set up a cron job to poll the email account or does WordPress
   use the WP-Cron approach and hook it onto a frequent action like displaying a
   post?

 * I’m having this problem as well.
 * I have narrowed it down to the wp_mail function (in pluggable_functions.php) 
   trying to set a From: value in the headers.
 * If I take that out then it works fine, although the From header looks a little
   odd.
 * So you might want to check it out. It’s not great but it might enable you to 
   get by for now.
