I'm unsure about this. The change below may fix it accidentally.

Change the template to...

    ("@" "Email outgoing sync. USED INTERNALLY" entry (file+datetree (concat my-org-files "emails_sent.org"))
    "* EMAIL %c :EMAIL:\n%?\nEntered on %T\n" :immediate-finish t)
(i.e. add ":immediate-finish t")

...and you will never see the capture buffer for this entry.
