The "Default site admin email" was set, but it looks like it is ignored in this context.
Only after additional set an "Bounce address" it will work. But why is an bounce address needed to invite an new admin?

@ollehar, is there any reason why both default site admin emaill and bounce address need to be set up?

@mdc_limesurvey San you still reproduce this? If yes, what are your exact email settings configured in global settings?

Yes the problem still exists, but only now another sender addresses is used.
We have updated to 3.25.18+210316 in the meantime.
Now without setting an sitebounce mail address the mail will send as "apache@<hostname>.localdomain".
Here are the mail settings of the config file:
'siteadminemail' => 'foo@domain'
'emailmethod'=>'smtp',
'emailsmtphost' => 'localhost',
And here the global settings:

What happens if you switch to 'PHP' as method?
