Git does that if your outgoing mail "From:" is different from the git
authorship "From:".  In your case, the difference is that your git
settings did not specify a "Full Name <[email protected]>" mail line, but
merely an email address "<[email protected]>"; whereas your authorship
included full name.  You may want to check that your top-level
~/.gitconfig has these settings:

[user]
    name = "Full Name"
    email = [email protected]
[sendemail]
    from = Full Name <[email protected]>

so that 'git send-email' won't be forced to assume authorship is
different than mail sender.
