how do I change the admin email for let's encrypt?
Solution 1:
Use:
certbot-auto register --update-registration --email [email protected]
or
certbot register --update-registration --email [email protected]
or
certbot update_account --email [email protected]
certbot-auto or certbot will work if you have the executable under /usr/sbin. If you're unable to call certbot-auto globally, use the path to the certbot-auto file.

Solution 2:
There is also a contact email address stored by the python letsencrypt client under:
/etc/letsencrypt/accounts/acme-v01.api.letsencrypt.org/directory/{someKindOfHash}/regr.json
I believe that if you create multiple certs from the same letsencrypt client instance, it reuses the email address stored in regr.json, at least for expiry alert emails.
Solution 3:
Update based on https://letsencrypt.org/docs/expiration-emails/
certbot update_account --email [email protected]
Before This is just an update on n3rve's answer, since certbot-auto didn't work for me:
certbot register --update-registration --email [email protected]
Solution 4:
Because Let's Encrypt is a certificate authority, I'm guessing you want to update the data (an email) within your certificate.
If the certificate was signed, there is no way to update it. A new certificate will need to be produced.
Solution 5:
According to https://letsencrypt.org/docs/expiration-emails/
certbot update_account --email [email protected]
I guess it keeps on changing
