Emailing backups doesn’t work in WordPress > 5.0

[kareldonk]

It looks like using the email options to email backups to a specific email address doesn't work anymore since WordPress > 5.0. The backup process completes and you get the message that it has been emailed, but no email arrives.

i agree: Emailing backups doesn’t work in WordPress > 5.0
iIn my case e-mail still arives me but the mime-coding is broken.
So attachement ist not readable.

If you want to patch it yourselves just take a look at my pull request. Just a few lines of code that have to be replaced.
