Verify email

When I try to connect an old iphone 4 to my iCloud account I accept terms and conditions but a verification proccess is requested. Then I decide to use by email process but I dont receive the apple verification email since that AOL closes their netscape.net services accounts. Perhaps, I follow using an AOL.com account with the same preffix (name@aol.com)

iPhone 4, iOS 7.0.4

If the primary email address associated with your iCloud ID is no longer valid, you need to change it by doing the following (from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5621):

Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com), click "Manage your Apple ID", and sign in.
If you have two-step verification turned on, you'll be asked to send a verification code to the trusted device associated with your Apple ID. If you are unable to receive messages at your trusted device, follow the guidelines for what to do if you can't sign in with two-step verification.
In the "Apple ID and Primary Email Address section," click Edit.
Enter the email address you want to use, then click Save Changes. Apple will send a verification email to that address.
Open the email from Apple, then click Verify Now in the email.
When the My Apple ID page opens, sign in with your renamed Apple ID.
If you have two-step verification turned on, you'll be asked to send a verification code to the trusted device associated with your Apple ID.
