    Yes. I've spent the last 2 hours deleting them. I went to Yahoo Message Boards and all there is there is a statement saying We're sorry, looks like something interrupted the question supply!

    I think the only way to stop it until whatever glitch is causing it is sorted, is to go into your settings and unclick "receive email when contact asks a question". That's what a lot of people are doing who have already posted this question.

    I personally haven't received such a message but as Outhval has suggested to by-pass the problem short-term would be to change your settings temporarily

    Hi, Well I'm glad it's not just my mail! It seems thousands are having Yahoo Mail problems. I have since yesterday. Seeing it's not something that you can repair or personally fix with your system, we have to wait until Yahoo fixes their technical difficulties. Which sucks!
