Yahoo sends notifications to an old, dead email address, even though my profile shows the right address.?

I sometimes answer questions on Yahoo Answers. When responding, Yahoo is sending notifications to an old email address that is closed.

I can see no way to correct this - my profile shows my correct email. I can't see the old address anywhere in my profile. If I edit my profile it shows the correct email!

Preferences shows my correct email address. Yahoo still sends them to my old one, and I can see nowhere this is stored!

Any idea how I can contact Yahoo, or correct my email address? BTW, I'm in Australia, so I can't phone them.

Thanks!

Update:

Hi Six,

No - those are the things I'd already checked.

They have always sent to the email address I used when I first signed up.

However, I've emailed them and started (I hope) something that way.

Cheers

    In the top right corner where it says Hi click & select Account Info then sign in again.

    See if the email address is listed under "How Yahoo Contacts You" or "Update your contact information" or "Manage Other Accounts to Sign-in". You can change it if it is.

    If you were receiving emails from Yahoo properly before I would think it is another Yahoo glitch.

    You can contact the Answers Team at this email (leave out the space)
