I have used dropbox for many years. yesterday i accidentally delete my email account with microsoft and they are not able to recover it anymore. today when i tried to log on to dropbox, it initiates a verification to send a code to the old email address. i do remember my account username and password, any way to bypass this and let me change my username within the system? i have important information within my account.

Without access to the email address you likely won't be able to sign in to the Dropbox account. Your best option is to work with Microsoft to reactivate your email address so you can receive the verification code. If they can't reactivate the email address, perhaps you can re-register it as a new account.
I had the same problem, my university restored my e-mail account for one week, since it has been disabled because I changed to other university, but the number code never arrives.
