session.emailvariable = request.vars.email
Because the above is in a model file, it runs on every request. After the
form has been submitted, on subsequent requests, the value of
request.vars.email will be None, so you are simply overwriting the value
originally stored in the session. Instead, do something like:
if request.vars.email:
session.emailvariable = request.vars.email
