In this particular case, for example: current email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
The field above (sample form field) should only validate the email address if it is different than the user's current email address of "[EMAIL PROTECTED]". Where is the documentation for a custom method? In the meantime, I have worked around the issue by adding a link that says "Change Email" which than shows an empty email box which gets validated regardless of the email that is entered (even if they enter their own). This way its less confusing to the user, to enter a new email address they are required to click something which than shows them an empty box. If they enter the same email address as their own account, it will tell them that its already in use, but that's ok.
