Reclaiming Email Address
-
I want to delete this account and use the email address tied to it on a separate WordPress account. Is this possible?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi,
Yes, it’s possible. But it would be quicker to change the email address on the present account, which will immediately free up the email address to be used on another account. See the Issues Changing your Email Address section of the Update Email Address support page. If you must close the account, I’d suggest that you wait until you’ve recycled the email address before you close the account.
If you close the account before recycling the email address as described above, then the email address will not be available for 30 days. See the Account Restoration section of the Close My Account support page regarding why it wouldn’t be available for 30 days.
