Yes, it's much better to do it in the sanitize_address().

Subject: [PATCH] git-send-email: remove garbage after email address

In some cases it's very useful to add some additional information after email in Cc-list, for instance:

"Cc: Stable kernel <stable@vger.kernel.org> #v3.4 v3.5 v3.6"

Currently the git refuses to add such invalid email to Cc-list, when the Email::Valid perl module is available or just uses whole line as the email address.

Now in sanitize_address() everything after the email address is removed, so the resulting line is correct email address and Email::Valid validates it correctly.
