Good to know that I don't have to search for the error on my side any
longer.

http://www.openssl.org/support/faq.html doesn't contain the string "email"
and only one instance of "CN", which covers a different topic.
http://www.openssl.org/support/faq.html#USER13 also covers a different
topic.
However since you told me that it's just an odd display, I generated a
certificate from that request and it contained the correct DN.
"Case closed" :-)
Thank you,
Christian
