Subject Tags, set on the Queue Admin page, work fine for the scenario
you describe, we use them in production today with tickets that move
across Queues and are sent to old email addresses.

RT looks for the $rtname, $EmailSubjectTagRegex and every queue
subject tag configured in the system

I expect you have a misconfiguration or custom local development.
