So the problem comes from `message-get-reply-headers', more exactly this
piece of code:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
      ;; Make sure this message goes to the author if this is a wide
      ;; reply, since Reply-To address may be a list address a mailing
      ;; list server added.
      (when (and wide author)
	(setq cc (concat author ", " cc)))
      (when (or wide (not author))
	(setq author (or (message-fetch-field "from") ""))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

In our case the "from" field contain "notification <at> github.com" which is
the place where we should never reply.
