iMessage: how to change addresses in Send & Receive messages? iPhone 12 Pro running iOS 18.2.1: under Settings > Apps > Messages > Send & Receive, there is a phone number and 2 email addresses listed, but I can't change any of them. I can only check/uncheck them. I would like to change one of the email addresses, since it is now obsolete. How do I do this? (This issue is also on my iPad Pro).
