Why would a 'dead account' be showing as Available in my 'Chat & Mobile text' box?

Strange thing happening. A close relative had a yahoo account years ago. This account no longer exists. I know this because I helped her set up the account, and tried to log in to the account a short time ago, and got this message: "This ID is not yet registered". She hasn't used the account in 6 or 7 years at least. Yet, to my surprise just now, the account shows up in my Chat & Mobile Text box as being "available"! What would cause this? Is it another Yahoo! bug?
