1. Log in to your Guild Wars account with your current login information.
2. Click the Edit Account button on the character selection screen.
3. Click the Change E-mail Address option followed by the Next button.
4. Enter your new e-mail address choice twice and your current password. The warning messages to the right of each field will disappear once you have met the requirements for that field.
5. Click the Change button.
You have to confirm the email change on both addresses.

Confirming with just 1 will do, only you need to wait little bit. Since my mail account was deleted for inactivity then i coudlnt confirm from there. But i was still able to change my email adress .

How long does it take to reach the email?

Actually, the email it got sent to was an inactive email.
And it also got sent to my email I'm always on. And it still has gotten to that email and it has been one week.

If you confirm on the new one, you just have to wait a little while and the email will get changed if there's only one response.

I'm not sure about this, but I don't think you can change the "account name" that you log in with. If you follow the procedure above, you can change the e-mail address that is tied to your account so that e-mail from ANet goes to the new address, but that doesn't change your "account name". When you log in the GW you will still need to use the old account name - it doesn't matter whether or not it is a valid e-mail address any more.

Disclaimer - like I said, I'm not sure about this, but if you've changed your e-mail address and wonder why your account name hasn't changed, that's why.
