Emails Going To Same Address ...

[joko]

I have 2 yahoo email addresses that are basically my name, but one is the shortened version of my name - lets say annabel baker

so they are -
[email protected]
and
[email protected]

i set them up at separate times.

they also have the same password

so why do i get mail for both addresses in both accounts inboxes?

how can this have happened?

to my knowledge i do not have a forwarding thing set up because in order to do that you have to have the pro account - because i did try to do that.

i know they are similar but surely thats not good enough!
it should be exact!

cheers

Indeed they have to be exact. I just wonder if you have set them up somehow to be the same account with two different names, or to always forward or whatever inadvertently. I can only suggest you check the settings at the website.

problem solved! - the second one is the 'base' name for my disposable addresses on the account.

I keep getting the same. I thought it was something to do with Sky taking over Yahoo!
