  Hi, I changed my email address at https://en.wordpress.com/settings/account/ but now I’m receiving all update/notification emails twice, to both the old address and the new address.

  How can I remove the new address? It doesn’t seem to show up anywhere any more so I don’t know how I can delete it…

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

  You have two separate email address settings at WordPress.com.

  Blog notifications for the admin (like comment moderation, Likes, new subscriptions, etc) are sent to the email address at Settings -> General in the Dashboard.

  Personal notifications (like comments on your post, subscription emails, and upgrade renewals) are sent to the email address at Users -> Personal Settings in the Dashboard.

  Try the change here first > http://wordpress.com/#!/settings/

  Brilliant, thanks: I hadn’t spotted the Settings > General one.
