How do I change my designated email address. Do I have to cancel existing registration and start as a new member

An old email address is shown in my details. Am I correct in thinking I must cancel my registration and start again as a new user?

For what aspect of Mozilla?

Fir this Firefox support website, hover the cursor over your "Logon Name" at the top of this page and then click on Edit Profile. Then click on Email - Change.

If you are talking about a Firefox Account for Sync services, you'll need to create a new account. At this time the email address is the primary identifier and it can't be changed. Changing that is high on the "wish list" of changes in the future.
