[PATCH 1/2] git-send-email-script - Fix loops that limit emails to unique values to be pedantically correct.

Email addresses aren't generally case sensitive in the real world, but technically, they *can* be. So, let's do the right thing.

Additionally, fix the generated message-id to have the right template used.
