Indeed, that fixes it. I checked my reference for the mutt aliases format and apparently missed the "alias " clearly printed out there. My apologies.
The git send-email man page is surely sufficient for users of mutt, mailrc, pine, elm, gnus as they already have working configurations, but for those of us that use a different MUA and just want to get some sort of an address book for git, it would be nice to define these formats - it would only take one line per format type.
Thanks!
