Hello, everyone:

To ensure that you get the most out of Yahoo! Answers, we would like to remind you to make sure you’ve entered your correct email address on your profile. This way, you will receive not only notifications on your questions and answers, but also emails and updates from other users. From time to time, we will send you communications regarding your usage of Yahoo! Answers and community feedback regarding your participation.

How do I check, add, or update my email address?

Go to your profile page on Answers and click “Edit My Info.” Make sure you have entered your correct email address, and you’ll be all set. The Privacy and Email Communications from Yahoo! Answers sections allow you to choose which emails and notifications you want to receive.

And remember: We will never display your email address or use it for any purpose other than to send you notifications regarding your questions and answers. If you choose to allow other users to contact you, your email address will not be visible and you can opt in and out of this feature whenever you like by going to your profile page.

    Thanks for the reminder!
    I checked out my Y!A profile page and everything seems to be in order.
    As far as I can tell, everything is working smoothly regarding my Y!A participation, and all my emails regarding Y!A are being sent (or not) just exactly as I opted on my page.
    …but if y’all have that BestAnswer-multiple-email-notification-glitch…one MORE time…..I WILL throw a hissy fit!
    ;-)
    (I just wanna be clear on that^)..LOL
    :-o

  6. Yes, my email address is correct. Now, a question for you! What is the status on fixing the broken Community Moderation system?

  8. It’s a good idea also to remind people of the possible danger of giving their email address in their question or answer posts.
    I’m not sure if they are thinking when they do this.

  10. ” From time to time, we will send you communications regarding your usage of Yahoo! Answers and community feedback regarding your participation.”

    Snort. Why not be honest for once? You mean “…we’ll send you the computer generated violation notices which we never read so don’t bother appealing them.”
    Any other need for correspondence, seems to require us providing a current e-mail address again anyway.

  13. I guess I used the wrong one, since I had to be logged in to even post this comment. That is, if it shows up.
