I don't use gmail, but my impression was that the problem is one of:
  1. pushing to gmail's drafts folder via imap, and then using the web
     interface to send the email
  2. cutting and pasting into the web interface

I would hope that sending directly via SMTP with git-send-email would not get munged. That is pretty broken otherwise.
