As far as my understanding goes, this is correct.
You can order new transaction approval codes, which are then sent to the primary email on the account. Again, and I cannot stress this enough, DO NOT use a "real email inbox" as front for any of those transaction websites. Since your receiving or sending email is fully visible to all (see my post above).

Use a forwarding address, which, preferably, is hosted on one domain and have it forward to another domain, ideally on a different host. That makes it very hard and complicated for anyone to try and even find out which email account to even begin to try to hack.

DO NOT use a gmail account or the likes, since Gmail will happily let you reset your password after only answering questions like "where did you go to school". Anyone with access to your social media accounts have a fair chance at finding a few alternatives to at least try there first.
