I don't see error here.
You setup to extract the email and name of company into the email.
The system search for a thirdparty with email or name ALSOFT.
He found the thirdparty ALSOFT, so he load the thirdparty ALSOFT.

Can you see the line, Thirdparty already exists with id = 1.

This ID returen after the search is wrong. My ALSOFT customer ID is actually 8. This is because of unnecessary search for thrirdparty at the end of the IF ELSE ladder. Which I deleted.

@eldy the same configuration is working at Dolibarr 18.0.x

@eldy problem is in the following code.
`else { // $result > 0 is ID of thirdparty
dol_syslog("One and only one existing third party has been found");

									$thirdpartystatic->fetch($result);

									$operationslog .= '<br>Thirdparty already exists with id = '.dol_escape_htmltag($thirdpartystatic->id)." and name ".dol_escape_htmltag($thirdpartystatic->name);
								}`

Here the value of $result is always one if Third-party found. As this is the return value from Class societe and method fetch. You don't need to fetch the third-party again here. If you really want to fetch third-party then the above code should be like this.
`else { // $result > 0 is ID of thirdparty
dol_syslog("One and only one existing third party has been found");

									$thirdpartystatic->fetch($thirdpartystatic->id); // ID already fetch in last call

									$operationslog .= '<br>Thirdparty already exists with id = '.dol_escape_htmltag($thirdpartystatic->id)." and name ".dol_escape_htmltag($thirdpartystatic->name);
								}`

Or if you want to make it more beautiful then, you can return the actual value from the function findNearest like this way
`public function findNearest($rowid = 0, $ref = '', $ref_ext = '', $barcode = '', $idprof1 = '', $idprof2 = '', $idprof3 = '', $idprof4 = '', $idprof5 = '', $idprof6 = '', $email = '', $ref_alias = '', $is_client = 0, $is_supplier = 0)
{
// A rowid is known, it is a unique key so we found it
if ($rowid) {
return $rowid;
}

	// We try to find the thirdparty with exact matching on all fields
	// TODO Replace this with step by step search
	// Then search on barcode if we have it (+ restriction on is_client and is_supplier)
	// Then search on profids with a OR (+ restriction on is_client and is_supplier)
	// Then search on email (+ restriction on is_client and is_supplier)
	// Then search ref, ref_ext or alias with a OR (+ restriction on is_client and is_supplier)
	$tmpthirdparty = new Societe($this->db);
	$result = $tmpthirdparty->fetch($rowid, $ref, $ref_ext, $barcode, $idprof1, $idprof2, $idprof3, $idprof4, $idprof5, $idprof6, $email, $ref_alias, $is_client, $is_supplier);

	if ($result == 1) {
		return $tmpthirdparty->id;
	} else {
		return $result;
	}
}`
