I have a firefox account already for syncing all my settings bookmarks etc. The email tied to it though no longer exists. It was ***@gmail.com. When I punched it in it told me it needed to verify that it was me so it sent an email to that email. trouble is it is being sent to a nonactive account and bouncing back before I had a chance to change the email on the account. Am I essentially shit out of luck?

Resetting the sync password, or changing its e-mail, will remove all data from the servers.
