Re: changing invalid email

Perhaps you forget to "submit" it? I.e.
1 go to your profile
2 edit the email address to be the new one
3 scroll down and press "submit"

Note that "validity" of an email address refers to it's format rather than whether emails to the address are deliverable or not. (See e.g. RFC 6530 and details)
