Since we're already discussing this today, I noticed the list rewrites 
your headers due to SPF policies at microsoft.com, to the point that a 
blind 'git am' on the list message will attempt to attribute your patch 
to 'Justin Terry (VM) via Qemu-devel <address@hidden>' if the 
maintainer is not careful.

You may want to configure git on your end to emit an explicit 'From: 
Justin Terry (VM) <address@hidden>' in the body of each message 
you send, to override the mailman overwrite of your messages to the 
list.  I don't know whether 'git config format.from "Your Name 
<address@hidden>"' is sufficient for this (the help for git 
format-patch mentions that it adds the From: line to the body only when 
it differs textually from the From: header, but doesn't mention a way to 
force the From: line in the body) even when the two start out the same.
