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 preferences like you can when you decide not to be notified that people answered your question or your contacts asked questions. We're all just stuck with the junk emails.
It's Yahoo Answer's latest glitch. (They get so many here, it's pitiful.) It's happening to lots of us. I logged in this morning and had almost 100 of those best answer messages then another 40 or so rolled in but, as I was wading through them, I found that a bunch are repeats of the 20 or so that I had last night!! Very annoying!!
Now that I logged in again, yes, over 100 email messages all about the same 4 or 5 "best answers" that I've gotten in the last day.
But that's Yahoo for you, they are always having some sort of glitch or other. Welcome to yaHELL. Yahoo doesn't seem to be able to hire competent help or prevent these glitches so I guess we just have to tolerate it until they fix it. YaHELL indeed.

Me too.
I marked the e-mails as spam so they go straight into the spam folder.
I don't know why it is taking them so long to fix this glitch, but once they do, you can just unblock their address.
