login with email does not work

[Saint-Cyr]

the FOSUserBundle default feature that allow user to login with username or email is working when I configure it as I describe it on my post http://stackoverflow.com/questions/39015597/pugxmultiuserbundle-fosuserbundle-login-with-email via stackoverflow

But if you try to login with username, it works, right?
In my app, I allow logging in only with email, there is no username. What I did was override the function setEmail to set the username the same as the entered email, as I saw from several posts regarding logging with email.
I didn't look at the code, but I guess it is not prepared to deal with email logins.
