Other rescvue e-mail sufferers:


The answer is that the "rescue" e-mail is not the "additional" e-mail under manage Apple Id. Instead, go to the "Security question" area where you enter your security questions. Delete the "rescue" e-mail there, then verify the deletion e-mail that gets sent to you. Then sign back in and change your Apple ID to your old "rescue" e-mail if that's your goal. After you validate that, you can add your old Apple ID e-mail back in as your "Rescue e-mail" in the Security question area. Whew!!!
