  I am trying to change e-mail at my wordpress account.
  Wrongly I created a new account with the new e-mail, so, I deleted this new account, but when I try to change the e-mail, it shows that the e-mail does already exists.
  As I deleted the account, I supposed that the e-mail would be free to be used at my previous account, but don’t.
  I have received an e-mail saying that this new account was closed and that the content would be removed after 30 days.
  After this 30 days, would I be able to use this e-mail at my previous account??

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

  Hi –

  When the account was deleted we sent an email notification to the email address associated with the account. Reply to that note directly repeating what you’ve mentioned here in this thread. We can reinstate the account once we hear from you there — once the account is reinstated you can edit the email address on it which will free up that address to be used on the correct account.

  The other option is to wait 30 days. Write back if you have more questions.
