I did this today and my damnable ISP has a server side spam filter and so never got the reverification email. When I tried to check to make sure I entered the email address correctly, I was locked out of the edit profile section as well as from posting on the support forum or sending any mods a pm.
Luckily I remembered about the spam filter and disabled it and got the email sent to me from thier spam bin.
Suggested fix:
Do not suspend an account during a change of email address, just don't mark the address changed until after the challenge-response has been answered. Continue using the old email address.
