I expect the answer is simple. How do I prevent getting duplicate entries based, for example, on the email address. Needs to be something the warns the user that an entry already exists.

Hello,

The 'Unique Field' validation rule is available for a Textbox type of field, which can be set to the Email field, this way the same email will not be accepted as a second submission. More on this here.
