I'm joining this thread rather late, and this may be somewhat OT,
but... I have to ask: is this delay the result of the recent upswing
in Spam worldwide? Can anyone at Yahoo or elsewhere comment?

Thanks,

third time I've done so.

p.s. Chuck, must be 'game on' in hell twice since Petach and I both work
for Yahoo. :)

I have my whistle & skates, but won't drop the puck until my yahoo.com 
message backlogs sink to single digits, and/or a human being from 
yahoo!mail contacts me directly via the methods I outlined in the 
above referenced form.

Just to follow up, six days has passed and other than one auto-reply 
promising:

I haven't heard a peep from any human being at Yahoo. Has anyone else 
that filled in the placeb^X^X^X^X form heard back from them? Beuller?
