Change email in "Account Settings"

    Hello!

    I’ve lost access (and recovery options) to my present email registered at “Account Settings / Email Address”

    I’ve created a new email account but now I can’t change the old email (the current registered) at “Account Settings / Email Address” because the system sends a message to the current email and not the new one!

    “There is a pending change of your email to (email visible only to moderators and staff). Please check your inbox for a confirmation link.”

    How can I change the current email to the new one?
