You probably just installed Email::Valid package.
The current git-send-email works a little better and just prints an error:
W: unable to extract a valid address from: <sta...@vger.kernel.org> #v3.4 v3.5
v3.6
This patch should fix the problem, now after <email> any garbage is
removed while extracting address.
