are you send it thru a MTA on your machine? could that it's that one
replacing the sender information? can you test? That seems confirmed
by your email headers:

it's automatically inserted in the bug report (see below) and you
missed to mentioned (as you can see below) the editor configuration:
are you sending your report with 'gnus' maybe?
