Given that the problematic line

	Stable Kernel Maintainance Track [off-list ref] # vX.Y

is not even a valid e-mail address, doesn't this new logic belong to
sanitize_address() conceptually?
Yes, it's much better to do it in the sanitize_address().

Felipe, may you check it?

Subject: [PATCH] git-send-email: remove garbage after email address

In some cases it's very useful to add some additional information
after email in Cc-list, for instance:

"Cc: Stable kernel [off-list ref] #v3.4 v3.5 v3.6"

Currently the git refuses to add such invalid email to Cc-list,
when the Email::Valid perl module is available or just uses whole line
as the email address.

Now in sanitize_address() everything after the email address is
removed, so the resulting line is correct email address and Email::Valid
validates it correctly.
