when I no longer have access to the account that I was registered under?

I lost my job on Friday, and with it the e-mail account that I registered under. How do I change the e-mail (hopefully to a yahoo.com address if allowed) and password?

Thanks!

Are you saying that you can't access your change email/password buttons when you click on your profile?

I can access those, but it will send the pw info to my old work e-mail account that I no longer have access to.

If you change the email address, it will mail a new password to your new email address.

Seeing as you are logged into the account, you should be all set to change it to your yahoo account.

To change the e-mail address, I need to know the PW. It won't take the change w/o entering a PW. If I ask for a new PW to be sent (as I have no idea what mine is), it will be sent to my old address that I no longer have access to.

Gotcha! Ok email me from the new account, with all the existing information you have from this account. (I need to verify it's you, so a screenshot of your profile page would be best!) Then I'll change the email address for you and set a temp password as well.
