Presumably REMOTE_USER is set to johnj rather than johnj at msu.edu?

With this call, I don't see how RT could possibly know your Email
Address.  My assumption is that your RT 3.0 install had a local
modification to set empty Email Addresses to the Username +
@yourdomain.  This is a pretty common thing to do using the
CanonicalizeUserInfo method.  I'd suggest checking for a missed
customization.
