OK I was wrong. There is an administrative option, that was turned off 
by default,  that allows people to change their email address to another 
valid email address.

allowemailchange: Users can change their own email address through the 
preferences. Note that the change is validated by emailing both 
addresses, so switching this option on will not let users use an invalid 
address.

You can now change you email address yourself.
