Sorry to jump in here, rlloyd and sorry to see you're having trouble.
Do you have access to your Dropbox accounts, both free and paid?

I have 2 emails associated with Dropbox. One I originally opened my account with and another that people keep sending to. Since people use the 2nd email so much I tried changing my account email to that email but the system won't let that happen. It says that email is already in use.
