    Sorry to break this to you but Yahoo is traditionally kind of slow about fixing it's glitches. They'll get around to it when they feel like it or stumble across the solution.

    I'm not too impressed with their techs' ability to solve this and it's happening to LOTS of us so it's really annoying.

    Worse yet, 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 been happening to me since Friday night. I had maybe 20 messages then, had well over 100 yesterday and even as I was deleting them I kept getting more. They're still coming in...

    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.

    No need to send them a mail, they are already aware of the problem. Unfortunately quite a few users have the same problem currently, apparently it's the newest Yahoo glitch. Go to the forum link underneath the list of categories, and read about it...

    If I and everybody else would have truly gotten 10 points for each time we received one of those messages, the points on the leaderboard should skyrocket coming Monday...:-)
