How do I stop getting so much gorram email from Yahoo Answers?

There's got to be an options page on this site somewhere, but Yahoo provides such a crappy interface that it's impossible to find.

How do I stop getting so much gorram email from Yahoo Answers?
You can opt out of having new answers to your questions emailed to you, but I don't think you can opt out of being told your answer is best, or that your question will expire, etc.





At the bottom of the box when you ask your question, choose not to have emails with every new answer.





Otherwise, just don't use Answers at all. That's the only way to avoid the emails.
Reply:Apologies to everyone else, who also had good answers, to the extent you care about your "best answer" percentage. The Big Lebowski fan in me did like the "world of pain" comment. Report Abuse

Reply:He who insults Yahoo ('s interface), is asking for a world of pain!





The only way to make it stop is something I like to call "overdue abortion"
Reply:when you submit a question, uncheck the box where it says alert me when I recieve answers. Also, go to your answers page and edit your preferences to say user does not allow email.
Reply:You cannot opt out of email from Yahoo!
