[PATCH] send-email: squelch warning due to comparing undefined $_ to ""

The check to see if initial_reply_to is defined was also comparing $_ to "" for a reason I cannot ascertain (looking at the commit which made the change didn't provide enlightenment), but if $_ is undefined, perl generates a warning.

Junio, the commit which introduced the change was yours, but I don't
see why you were comparing $_ to "".
