Thank you Peter.

I changed the SP to request
urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:emailAddress as mentioned in the
SAML 2.0 spec line 3285 and I get the following:

 WARN [org.opensaml.saml.saml2.profile.impl.AddNameIDToSubjects:337] -
Profile Action AddNameIDToSubjects: Request specified use of an
unsupportable identifier format:
urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:emailAddress
