How do I change to a new email address for Google Groups subscriptions?
I am subscribed to several Google Groups (email lists). I want to change the address where I receive that email, preferably without having to unsubscribe and resubscribe for each list. (Some lists are private/moderated, so that would entail some extra work.) According to [this documentation](https://support.google.com/groups/answer/9792796?hl=en), I can edit (instead of resubscribing) but I have to edit the address for each list -- a little annoying, but I can manage that. (There aren't so many to make that unworkable.) The documentation tells me to: - select a list - click on "My Membership Settings" - edit (there's an "email" field) Unfortunately, that email field isn't a textbox; it's a dropdown list of email addresses Google knows about -- in my case, my Gmail address and the non-Google forwarding address I publish. I want to switch to a *different* address, one which exists but Google doesn't know about yet. How do I supply a new address? Do I first have to somehow connect it with my Google account (how?) and then Groups will know about it, or can I do something directly in Groups, or what?
