  My employer has shut down the email service that hosted the account I was originally using when I started to use wordpress. When I try to change my email address for my blog on wordpress, it sends a message to my old account for confirmation.. But I can’t access that account. Nor can I get my employer to forward mail from my old account.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi annejjacobson,

  When you change your email address, the confirmation email containing the confirmation link is sent to the NEW email address as stated in the support doc. http://en.support.wordpress.com/email-address/

  The one sent to the old email address is just a notification of the change.

  Hope this helps. :)
