The best option you have to gain access to the account is to gain access to the old email address. Contact the email provider and see if they can recreate the address for you, even if it's just temporary so you can receive the one-time security code.
Other than that, you'll need to open a ticket using the steps I replied with previously. Make sure you're NOT signed in to any Dropbox account, including these forums, and you'll be able to open a ticket if you follow all the prompts.

Hi from me as well, mc37.
You can still log a ticket with our support team, even if you're not signed in to a Dropbox account. Here's how:
Make sure that you are NOT signed in to ANY Dropbox account in your internet browser.
Go to this page https://www.dropbox.com/support/sign-in-issues, and select an “issue type”.
Enter your information, make sure that you enter an email address that you currently have access to, and submit it.
You will then receive a confirmation email that will have a ticket number.
Please send us your ticket number here afterwards.
