  A couple of years ago I set up my account using my work e-mail address. Since then I’ve gotten into blogging and went to my settings to update to my new private e-mail address. Unfortunately it appears to be sending to a request to confirm new e-mail address to my old work address which I am no longer able to access. Any ideas?

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

  The confirmation email will be sent to the new / updated private email address. You can click the confirmation link in the new email to confirm you email address change.

  Only the information email, that you have changed the email address, will be sent to the existing work email address. You don’t need to access it.

  Give it a try and let me know how it goes.
