One other thing...


If you don’t have access to either the original email account - or have failed to configure a “recovery” email address, then it going to get difficult.


If all else fails, you could contact Apple Support for assistance - if you are lucky, they may be able to help work through any other available options. You’ll find a link to Contact Support using the link at top-right of this page.
