Unfortunately, if you've forgotten your password or you're being prompted for a one-time security code sent to your email, without access to the email address, you likely won't be able to gain access to the Dropbox account. Your best option is to contact the administrators of your old email and see if they can recreate it, even temporarily, so you can receive the security code.
Failing that you can try to contact Support but they have said publicly that without access to the email, they won't provide access to the Dropbox account. Visit the Support page while you're NOT signed in to a Dropbox account, including these forums, and you'll see an option for sign in issues. It's best to use an Incognito or Private browsing session to make sure you're not signed in.
You are amazing Rich! The circle of endless help ended, I was actually able to send an email explaining my situation. Here's hoping someone answers and can help. Like I said, customer service used to be superb. Fingers crossed.
