Hello,

Hm, we actually do not search users by their e-mail to avoid privacy issues. I would imagine that it could be problematic if I could just search for "hotmail.com" and I already know all users who uses hotmail

that make since but you shall remove this option in backend "index user emails" or this is differnet

===
PS I have another issue;
this happens whenever a user regiser and try to edit profie
"There was some error in your form. Please correct the respective fields."

ok got it,
the error happens becauase ther are required fields on other pages of the profile,which is not shown to the user unless he clicks on the apprporiate profile section..

Hm, yeah you are right. It looks like we also offer the option to index user's emails. But it's by default disabled. Try to enable it and re-index Smart Search again.
