Saw it my bulk and just deleted it, was probably trying to redirect you to a site to attempt to steal your password.

SPAM. I don't think Yahoo would send you an official email from @antronomia.com. Mark it as spam or better yet block that address.

I think the fact that the mail is from qrhlDjjaXkZNPgcLjjwp and there are so many spelling errors/typos are also pretty good tip offs that the mail isn't really from Yahoo. I doubt Yahoo employs anyone named qrhlDjjaXkZNPgcLjjwp, and they probably have spell checkers. /images/graemlins/smile.gif
