Comment (by Otto42):

 When logged out, it does show a difference there. However, I think the
 issue may be the length of the username? Trac seems to be shortening it,
 or truncating it because it recognizes it as an email? Not sure. Works
 fine when logged in, for me.

 I think the bottom line is that usernames should not be email addresses.
 We don't allow them anymore. Probably no way to fix this without that
 person creating a new account, and not using the email for the username.
