My email address has changed and I do not have access to the old one.  At login, I am asked to change my password, with a verification code sent to my old email address which I cannot get to.

How can I have the verification code sent to my phone?

Thanks John, but that wasn't much help.

The problem is I can't sign in to my account, because the email for that
account is no longer valid; and during the sign in procedure, a code is
sent to the now dead email address. Someone at Adobe needs to change my
email address for me.

Referral to the standard "Log-in to your account" page is not helpful.

I don't think I can make the problem any clearer.

Change your primary and secondary e-mail addresses by logging -in below.

If you still need help, scroll down to Contact Adobe on the same page.  Wait times may be longer than normal due to Covid-19.  Please be patient.

Going to the Contact Adobe tag at the bottom of the page does not lead to any new contact methodology.
