Not receiving subscriptions after privacy security reset

For a class I'm taking I turned off the ad blocker. When I reset the privacy/security settings I may have also cleared the browser and or settings. Now I'm not receiving the subscriptions I've signed up for.

I've added the email addresses to my yahoo contacts and changed my passwords and I am still not receiving the subscription emails. Is the setting I need to change in Yahoo or Firefox? It's driving me nuts and no matter what I do (change login, settings on the sites) I am still not getting emails from my subscriptions.

Hi Chris, Yes, I'm not receiving email from the subscriptions I signed up for. I can sign in to Yahoo. I've added the subscriptions to my contacts and reset the subscriptions a few times. Yahoo support isn't online or I can't get through (try again later). Thanks for the reply. It's helpful to know where the problem is coming from.

I check spam every day. The subscriptions don't come through that email.

I didn't change anything in my email program. Only the privacy settings in Ffx have changed.

Hi Heidi, When you say "Not receiving subscriptions" are you referring to email messages? I don't see how clearing privacy settings/data could affect that. Is the problem that you can't login to Yahoo?
