 I am trying to change my admin address. I keep getting a note that says a
 confirmation email will be sent. However, after much research I have
 learned the confirmation email is being sent to the email address that I
 want changed. That email address no longer exists. How can I get this
 email address changed , there has to be an alternative solution.

 Thanks for your help.
