Maybe I'm missing something, but I think GitHub gets the email address it displays in the commit messages from Git rather than your account. (That is, it gets it from whatever you set with git-config.)

This is correct. You can use whatever email you want in your commits. Your Github email is not shared by Github to any other party.
