POLL: How many people keep getting Best Answer e-mails flooding their e-mail inbox?

I keep getting e-mails from Yahoo saying "your answer has been chosen as Best Answer" every time I sign onto my e-mail. I originally got Best Answer a couple of days ago and all the e-mails I keep getting are the exact same as the original one.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Is there a way to stop it?

    I'm getting that too. It's really annoying. Hopefully Y!A will get it fixed soon.

    I haven't had that problem. I usually get about 2 to 5 of those a day, but I haven't gotten hundreds a day like a lot of people on here. I guess I was one of the lucky few.

    OH MY GOD. I thought I was the only one getting those!!! Yeah!! It's happening to me too!!!

    It's so annoying. I have no idea how to stop it.

    I tried deleting my hotmail email (the one I use and the one it's sending the emails to) out of my Y!A account info thing, but it didn't work.

    Arrrg.
