How do I know if someone blocked my Yahoo email?

When you add an email address to your blocked email addresses list there is no notification sent to the blocked email address in question.Whenever your blocked contacts send you a message, they will not receive a failure notice confirming their message was not delivered. Since the email in question will never arrive to your inbox, you will not know they have sent you a message.This works the same if someone has blocked you. I appreciate you giving me the opportunity to help you!

What does it mean to follow someone on yahoo answers?

It means you are their fan. A follower is the term on the new purple Y!A setup for what is called a fan on the old green setup..

To explain more... Your Y!A network consists of your fans and contacts, or under the new system followers and those whom you are following. It's meant to be a way to share Q&A with other trusted users.

A fan (follower) can get an email when you ask a question, also they can see your recent Q&A on the site, and under the new format they can also see what you thumbs up. No way to prevent that, except not to allow others to follow you, a setting on your Y!A profile (http://ca.answers.yahoo.com/my-activity/... or on the new format http://answers.yahoo.com/my-activity/edi... ).

By adding another user as a contact (following them), you are allowing them to view all of the Q&A on your profile, even if you have the most private settings. This also means you can see all of the Q&A of those who are following you.
