Issue with Duplicate Email When Subscribing and Creating an Account

[vicentesve]

Hello, good day.

I’m about to launch my online store and I want to promote it using the password-protected page, where customers can subscribe to my newsletter to be notified when the store goes live. The issue I’ve encountered during testing is that if I register for the newsletter on the password page and then try to create an account, I get an error saying that the email already exists.

Is there any way to prevent this? I’m using classic accounts.
