Anybody else having problems with Yahoo! Answers and email?

I checked my mail this morning and Yahoo sent me over 300 emails syaing I had best answer, the problem is they were all for the same five. Since then, I get about 15 emails of the same thing every 15 min. What's up with that?

    I think I have received at least 60 in the last 2 days! All for maybe 6 answers!

    Yahoo made another change before they worked out the bugs - surprise, surprise.

    I think I received the correct amount of points, just too many multiple notification posts.

    Hey since Yahoo considers multiple posts of the same or similar note is an abuse (in their current drop down abuse reporting system), can we report Y!A for abuse?!?!?! Just wondering....

    I have not had a problem with answers, but alot of my buttons on yahoo email are not working. I am not able to access my folders or use my reply button. I contacted customer support about the problem. As for the bulk of e-mails from answers, I am sure someone has contacted customer support sence so many people are having the same problem

    I heard that there's a guy at Yahoo who's doing a protest for a pay raise and he's locked himself in a room and sending emails until he gets the raise. He vowed to send as many best answer emails as he can until his demands are met.

    But in case it's something else, you can report it as spam here, off of this link,

    http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/mail/spam/...

    which may help escalate the issue.
