This should have been a private message to the group owner, not public. 
Since the public has seen the question, they might as well see my answer.
First off, while I don't know what addresses you want to get mail to, 
this is the one you're sending from which everyone on the group can see 
when you post: [email protected]
Secondly, no one here has any control over what address(es) you have 
subscribed with Yahoo. Only you do. There are a number of possibilities 
as to why things are not what you thought they were, but they are all 
between you and your Yahoo account.
Were you aware that a single Yahoo Groups account can have a dozen 
different email addresses, and every group you are on can be sent to a 
different address in your account?
Are you aware that Yahoo can be really messed up sometimes, and do 
really stupid things that neither you nor I have any control over 
whatsoever?

I'm sorry that you're upset that someone replied to one of your messages 
privately on an account you weren't expecting to get the reply to. I 
hope that you are able to figure out what the problem is so that you can 
avoid it happening in the future.

Thanks!
