Hello Peter,
the message should be there and the user should get redirected back to checkout page, but with no data filled there. It seems that the redirect is done by either joomla or some virtuemart file.
The duplicit email feature does not create duplicit accounts, but works this way
- if duplict email in joomla user table is found the customer is handled this way:
- he is not logged in joomla, but he is logged into virtuemart with his joomla user id just for the time of processing his order details and payment
- when he gets to checkout.thankyou page any of his virtuemart login information in session are cleared and he cannot view his order details or previous order details
- if you are using optional or normal registration and the user entered a password it will check if the password is correct and sign in him into joomla and vm, if the password is incorrect he will not get signed in joomla (only in VM for a fraction of time)
- if you are using silent or no registration, user can proceed the order as described above
- after sucessfull order submission the order data are associated to the user with used email address and he can view his data after signing in normally with his password.
- emails are not affected by this feature and customer will always receive the order emails
