    I did not proof read the email address I put in to create my account. It has a typo so I cannot verify it. Can I fix it? I tried changing it in account settings but it says I must verify my email first. I cannot do that since it is typed in wrong. I am caught in a endless loop!

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

    @kristiebradford we normally allow you to change the email address without verifying the old one first. Is it possible there’s another error when you enter the address?

    Also, what address are you changing it to?
