Hi,

This is indeed a bug. It is fixed in version 2006.4.

Until then, you may open file /components/com_registration/registration.php, go to line 271 and replace existing line with this:

echo "<script> alert('".$row->getError(). " " . _E_REGWARN_EMAIL_INUSE . "'); window.history.go(-1); </script>\n";

I'm writting here another problem, related to the registration subject.

When I registered myself as a new user, I got an error message in "chinese-like" characters.

I don't know what it was saying or what i did wrong.

Can you help me with that?

Please switch to English anf try the same procedure or keep administration in Greek and use FireFox.
In either case you will be able to read the message and post it here.

I Tried firefox.
finally I could see the "chinese characters" in my language. (see the attached screenshot), though I can not understand the reason for that message.

With IE6 nad IE7 the problem persists

Any suggestions?

The reason for the message is the fact that you are using the underscore character in the username. The message says that you must use characters from the alphabet and normal numerics ONLY.

yiannos is right.
The reason for the error message is the use of underscore "_", character.
As the message clearly states, you can only use latin numbers and characters on your username.
