I have field tamper, the item field AND the importer field all set to unique. It all works fine, but on duplicate feed imports, instead of preventing import of duplicate items, it overwrites the old field, and inserts the new duplicate...

My goal is for Drupal to PREVENT the duplicate field to be populated at all...the same way if you manually try to input a duplicate entry in manually imputing content, it shows an error and prevents you from submitting the form

Played with all settings, can't get it working...
