Change of Apple ID – new email not accepted

I am trying to change my Apple ID, but when I enter the e-mail I want to have as my new ID, I get an error message saying something like «the e-mail address is not available». What may be wrong, and what can be done to fix it?

As the message says, the email is not available. Either you already have it as part of another Apple ID or somebody else is using it.
