A good year or so ago, I set up a Yahoo/Flickr account for myself mainly to reserve my username. I've tried logging in again and can't remember my password at all! Stupid of me, I know, but it's OK because I can use the password reset form.
However, when I get to the stage where I have to confirm my alternate email address, it displays this: **********@7**********.**.uk – I don't have an email address where the domain starts with 7! Yahoo won't let you sign up without verifying your email so I can't have entered a nonexistent one.
Has anybody else had this problem? And where should I go from here? I really want my sweet sweet vanity URL!

If you have an associated @yahoo.com or @yahoo.co.uk email address and can remember what it is you can go through the password reset process for the mail account, then once signed in on that email account you might get access to the Flickr account.
