Hi, 

Welcome to Box Community!

What you can do is to add the new email as secondary and then make it the primary email. Kindly follow the steps below:

1. Login to box.com
2. Go to Account settings (click the profile pic or initials located on the upper right corner)
3. Account 
4. Login and Email Addresses
5. Link Email > enter the new email
6. Once you have successfully confirmed the email, go back to account settings and make the secondary as primary and remove the original email.

Hope this helps and thank you for posting!
