I cannot get into my account to change the email, nor can I seem to get to any link to email firefox/mozilla to ask them to do it for me.

Help!

To my knowledge, there is no way to forward or retrieve emails from a defunct service provider. It is a good idea to choose a reputable email provider in the future. Google(Gmail.com) and Microsoft(Outlook.com) are both decent choices.

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