You could extend Mage/Customer/Resource/Customer.php - protected function _beforeSave(Varien_Object $customer)

if ($result) {
   throw Mage::exception('Mage_Customer', Mage::helper('customer')->__('This customer email already exists'), Mage_Customer_Model_Customer::EXCEPTION_EMAIL_EXISTS);
} else {
    // SEND EMAIL - Use a custom template 
}
