var userObj = [];

Looks like this is the issue. The length of the userObj is 0.

if (email.value === userObj[i].useremail)

Here the userObj is empty. The 0th index never there in first place.

I tried to simulate the same case. You should have got error something like this.

let users = []

console.log(users[0].email);
VM329:1 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'email' of undefined
    at <anonymous>:1:10
(anonymous) @ VM329:1

Execute this loop only when you have more than one item in your userObj
