What version of git? Commit 51bbccf is in v1.7.12.1 and higher, and says: $ git show 51bbccf commit 51bbccfd1b4a9e2807413022c56ab05c835164fb Author: Junio C Hamano <gitster(a)pobox.com&gt; Date: Tue Aug 14 15:15:53 2012 -0700 send-email: validate & reconfirm interactive responses People answer 'y' to "Who should the emails appear to be from?" and 'n' to "Message-ID to be used as In-Reply-To for the first email?" for some unknown reason. While it is possible that your local username really is "y" and you are sending the mail to your local colleagues, it is possible, and some might even say it is likely, that it is a user error.
