"git am" accepts this one, but ...

... checkpatch.pl indeed throws a bunch of codestyle warnings.

Yes, you can configure git send-email to use your internal mail server
to send out patches.  Best place it in the global config
($HOME/.gitconfig instead of $repo/.git/config) so you don't have to
repeat the procedure for every git tree you have.

Alternatively you can configure a mail daemon such as postfix on your
workstation to deliver mails using your internal mail server as relay.
