I want to have the option to change my relay email address. When i made a relay account i had still my old email but now i have a new email address but i can't change it to my new email. I really love to have that option.

Absolutely ridiculous that this can't be done. I updated the email on my Mozilla account and in fact removed the old email entirely as the provider is shutting down soon yet relay is still tied to the old email address.

@GregoryFYou should be able to do it, but it looks like there's a hard-to-track-down bug that prevents it from working in some cases. I mentioned a potential workaround here, so you might want to try that: https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/change-firefox-relay-email-address/idc-p/45113/highlight/true#M...

I'm still having issues with this. I correctly set a new primary email address in my Firefox account. I then removed the old one from the accounts page, but it's not entirely removed: when I go to either https://relay.firefox.com/accounts/profile/ or https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/newsletter/existing/ ("Manage Your Email Preferences") my old email is still registered and I don't see an option to change it.

Same issue. Relay still maintaining my old email address after I have updated my main Mozilla account email address Twice, months apart.  I cannot find any way to update it in Relay. Removed the extension  and added it again. Same problem.

I'm wondering if I might have created the Relay account via a Firefox pre Mozilla account back in the day, and if so is the Relay info still locked to that?

Whatever it is I can't use Relay as is and will dump it if I can't get a fix. Over to you.
