For a store that I'm building it is important that the email address is correct, as no goods are sent by post but the bill is a confirmation of the purchase that one should print out and take with you.

To make sure that there are no typing errors are made in the mail I want to performing a check by mail twice to enter. If  the imported addresses do not match then the user must be notified to correct it before he can proceed with the ordering process.

I can not find this control in VM, there may be a plugin available, but Google has not yet sent me in the right direction.

Anyone have any idea how to carry this out?

I don't know if anyone has made a plugin for this yet, I have never heard of one.  VM uses Joomla's registration fields, so I use a simple validator.

To compare two entry fields you could use a template override for registration and apply some JavaScript. eg http://lab.artlung.com/compare-fields/
