  Hello,
  I created a wordpress user/password with my personal email account but I would like to change my email account. Can I go under account settings and change my email address and save changes?

  The email address you used when registering your WordPress.com account is listed in:
  the Settings tab on the WordPress.com home page, or
  Users -> Personal Settings in your dashboard

  Please see here > Issues Changing your E-mail Address

  I tried to change my e-mail address to the one I created for my Gravatar as I do not want to use my personal e-mail (used when signing up with wordpress) when commenting on other blogs. Not sure what to do now?

  I’m not sure what you are asking help with. You tried to change your email address here on WordPress.com to your Gravatar email and it didn’t work?

  I created my blog using my personal e-mail and now I wish to change to another email account which I have already created, which I already added to my Gravatar! I changed the e-mail in general setting, should that work! Sorry but I am not very tech will all this and do hope I make some sense. Thank you for your reply.

  If I am not mistaken, when you changed your email account under Personal Settings, you should have gotten an email confirmation. Did you? Please see the link that tt gave above.

  Thanks for your prompt reply, yes I got an email confirmation and it is all sorted! Maybe I typed in something wrong the first time around!

  I also tried to change my email account. In my case, it actually did work, but now all the notification emails are send to my old and my new email address.
  Only the new account is mentioned in my personal settings, so I don’t know how to get rid of the emails sent to the old one.

  Does anybody know how to change to the new account completely?
