/**

 */
function is_already_submitted($formName, $fieldName, $fieldValue) {
	require_once(ABSPATH . 'wp-content/plugins/contact-form-7-to-database-extension/CFDBFormIterator.php');
    $exp = new CFDBFormIterator();
    $atts = array();
    $atts['show'] = $fieldName;
    $atts['filter'] = "$fieldName~~/$fieldValue/i";
    $atts['unbuffered'] = 'true';
    $exp->export($formName, $atts);
    $found = false;
    while ($row = $exp->nextRow()) {
        $found = true;
    }
    return $found;
}
 
/**

 */
function my_validate_email($result, $tag) {
	//echo "hiiii";
    $formName = 'email_form';
    $fieldName = 'email';
    $errorMessage = 'Email has already been submitted';
    $name = $tag['name'];
    if ($name == $fieldName) {
        if (is_already_submitted($formName, $fieldName, $_POST[$name])) {
            $result->invalidate($tag, $errorMessage);
        }
    }
    return $result;
}
// use the next line if your field is a **required email** field on your form
add_filter('wpcf7_validate_email*', 'my_validate_email', 10, 2);
// use the next line if your field is an **email** field not required on your form
add_filter('wpcf7_validate_email', 'my_validate_email', 10, 2);
 
// use the next line if your field is a **required text** field
add_filter('wpcf7_validate_text*', 'my_validate_email', 10, 2);
// use the next line if your field is a **text** field field not required on your form 
add_filter('wpcf7_validate_text', 'my_validate_email', 10, 2);
