Best Answer is on repeat?
How do I report it to yahoo and get it stopped and is anyone else having this problem?
I have gotten the same best answer email 20 times since last night.
I wonder if we use the report abuse button if they read them?
Amy so far yours is the best suggestion.
I think you won't mind if I don't give you best answer for this until it is fixed.

Sorry to break this to you but it's happening to LOTS of us and there is no way for us to opt out of getting those "best answer" notices!! You can't just change your preference. We're all just stuck with the junk emails.
It's Yahoo's latest glitch. (They get so many here, it's pitiful.) It's happening to lots of us. I logged in today and had almost 100 of those best answer messages but, as I'm wading through them today, I find that a bunch are repeats of the 20 or so that I had last night!! Very annoying!!
But that's Yahoo for you, they are always having some sort of glitch or other. Welcome to yaHELL.

There has to be a glitch I just had 26 emails for 2 best answers. Yesterday I was not getting any emails for best answer and today they are going overboard. I am still getting them for the same best answer. You will only receive 10 points for your original best answer you will not receive 10 points for each email. Mark it up as another yahoo glitch maybe they will get it fixed soon. Good luck!!!

It has been reported by several users to the YA Suggestions Board.
