Actually, it is; the way you sent them the first time: From: in the
body is the correct way. If you go about faking the sender, you're
likely to get rejected as spam if people do SPF checking. Plus it's a
bit confusing for maintainers because I'd really like to know who sent
the patch to verify the signoff chain.

Other than this, it looks fine to me.
