I got a different user set up as superuser using a gmail address. However, I

You can't change the user's address that way. You can only update the
display name, the verified status of the address and the moderation and
delivery mode of subscriptions.
I think you can do it in `mailman shell` like this
```
$ mailman shell
Welcome to the GNU Mailman shell
Use commit() to commit changes.
Use abort() to discard changes since the last commit.
Exit with ctrl+D does an implicit commit() but exit() does not.
>>> um = getUtility(IUserManager)
>>> addr = um.get_address('address_to_change')
>>> addr.email = 'new_address'
>>> commit()
```
However, the preferred way is for the user to log in, go to
https://whatever/accounts/email/, add the new address to their account,
make it primary, go to the list info page at
https://whatever/lists/LIST, and if their Subscription Address is still
the old address (because they weren't subscribed by primary address),
click Manage Subscription and change it, and then possibly remove the
prior address.
