I haven't gotten any Anandtech Forums email notifications for over a month!

Yeah, over a month. I posted in Forum Issues but got just about zero response, so I'm posting here. I'm 99+% sure it's not my Mailwasher filtering or blacklisting. Everything from *anandtech.com is a "friend." Downloading mail without using Mailwasher still results in no emails. I saw a thread where somebody said they made some changes a few weeks ago. I'm subscribed to this, scores of others, and some new hot threads, trying to get an email, but nothing. Anybody have an idea? Thanks.

A helpful software engineer at one of my subscribed forums clued me into how Yahoo Spam Protection actually works and now I have things working OK (I hope!).

You have to open a message to reveal the Not Spam button. He also clued me into how I can set up filters to keep the protection from bulking my subscribed forums and other legit addressees. Good thing because I discovered that with Spam Protection off I was getting more spam than legit emails!!! I had no idea. What I don't comprehend is why Spam Protection suddenly thought my Anandtech (and several other subscribed forums) was spam. It certainly was not anything I did.

Yahoo support was approximately useless!
