A Yahoo.de account shows Error Code 1 on log in.?

Question

On a Yahoo.de email account, the first page encountered after log in says (in German) "Sorry, we've got a temporary problem" --- but it has been that way for 4 months. There is a page which lets me report "Error code 1" to customer support, but after 4 months of reporting, the email still doesn't work and the account is completely unusable. Is there anything I can do? And does anyone know what does "Error code 1" actually means? We'd really like to get back to using our (normal) account!

1. Log into Yahoo through a different country's server. I.e. if you usually log into Yahoo
via http://login.yahoo.com/ then try http://login.korea.yahoo.com/ or
http://login.europe.yahoo.com/.
2. If you use a proxy server then try turning it off.
3. If you're using a dial-up modem or some other access method that results in you using
a dynamic IP address, try disconnecting from the Internet and waiting a few minutes and
then reconnecting.
4. Access your Yahoo mailbox via http://wap.oa.yahoo.com/.
5. Use a different browser. Use Firefox if you use IE.
6. If you have a web accelerator then try turning it off.
