We currently support EITHER of the following to sync:

A single email field in Turba (the email field) OR two email fields  
(the homeEmail and workEmail fields). You can't have the 'email' field  
with another email field. You need to use the homeEmail and workEmail  
fields if you want to support syncing two email fields.
