I suspect that this might be a Safe issue.  The first thing I would 
check is the SafeUntrap directive in interchange.cfg, make sure there 
isn't anything you've untrapped in the old catalog that isn't listed in 
the new one.

Also try calling the email tag from outside of the [perl] block, just 
with ITL.  If this works then it's very likely going to be Safe.

Other than that it could just be changes in perl, Safe issues are hard 
to track down and things sometimes go awry in newer versions of perl. 
There are others here who are likely better at dealing with Safe issues 
than I am, my preferred method is to rewrite code where necessary so 
it's outside of [perl] and [calc] blocks and get on with my day.
