Take a look at one of the emails you send to a gmail account (in the web 
browser gmail interface).  I suspect you will see this junk. I never noticed 
this before because my mail program doesn't show this junk (although it is 
there in the message if I view raw headers).

My call is simple as can be:

    mail.send_mail(sender=MAIL_SENDER,
                   to=user.email,
                   subject="Welcome to {redacted}",
                   body=plain,
                   html=rich
                   )
