Hi @kenm
I'm sorry to see you're having issues with webmail.
If you've carried out the steps explained Here and tried using basic webmail Here I'm afraid there's not a lot we can do as we're aware of a variety of performance problems with webmail we're working on getting to the bottom of.
What else you can try though if you haven't already is setting your emails up a mail client.
There's some good guides that explain how to do that Here if you're unsure how.
I hope this helps.

Thanks for getting back to me @kenm
I'm sorry to see your folders are missing. Unfortunately that's one of the oddities we're having with webmail brought about by the variety of performance related problems we're working on resolving.
If you set up your emails on a mail client as IMAP, do you see your folders that way?

Hi Ken,
I can assure you we've not been fiddling with your service. I appreciate we've had problems with webmail in the past and we do again now. All I can suggest is to use a mail client for the times that webmail's not working properly for you.
I've included some steps above with how to do this, feel free to let me know if you get stuck anywhere in the process of it.
Really sorry for the inconvenience.

As i said earlier i dont have a clue about email clients etc or setting up looked at the link and its gobbledegook to me,
i would have to get someone in to set up something like that, which will incurr costs when i am already paying
plusnet for a service i cannot access.
At the same time as email going slow and losing all my folders i keep getting a windows virus threat alert saying that my
Mcafee subscription is about to expire, I have had this problem also years ago having to re download Mcafee every week
but then it was supposed to have been sorted (but only brushed under the carpet)
Over the years i have had all these problems before so never have been properly addressed or corrected
Sad point i have just signed up for 2years in mid June as all was working ok then then got ripped off with price increase i NAIVELY thought my new price would include the rise forJune

Hi @kenm
I'll be happy to call you back to do what's known as 'remote support' to setup your emails via a mail client on your computer if it's easier? This would basically entail me logging into your computer remotely while on the phone with you.
If you'd be happy to go ahead, feel free to drop me a private message Here with a contact number I can reach you on and when you'd be free for a call. I'll be here until 8pm tonight and next week 8am to 4:30pm Monday to Friday.
With regards to your McAfee subscription advising it's about to expire, assuming you're using Plusnet Protect's McAfee, I've checked this and I can't see any issues. I would note though that Plusnet Protect works on a 30 day basis that renews automatically every 30 days, so receiving a notification it's about to expire is normal.
Can you confirm though if McAfee does actually expire and stop working?

default folders and emails, tried deleting some emails kept getting large red box at top saying " Server Error Courier imap shut down by *** ) missed last word I have also received some emails overnight from a company I Unsubscribed from ages ago and never had an email from them since, then I suddenly get TWO? something seems to be going backwards and I feel I have been here before???

No problem @kenm
McAfee's notifications saying it's due to expire would likely be coincidence and not part of the issues with webmail.
I'll keep an eye out for your private message.

To set expectations for anybody looking, it turns out that we discontinued our ‘remote support’ a while ago. Tried to figure out why my Go To Assist (GTA) login wasn’t working, then found out the reason.

You could try the Win10 in-built Quick Assist functionality ... however IIRC the office does not use WIn10?
In another browser tab, login into the Plusnet user portal BEFORE clicking the fault & ticket links
Superusers are not staff, but they do have a direct line of communication into the business in order to raise issues, concerns and feedback from the community.

I've sent a few CEO complaints about this rubbish Plusnet Webmail service and here is the final reply from the Customer Advocates team (who deal with high level complaints).
"
I can confirm that the issue is not over 3 years. You might have a different issue before but this known issue now is not over 3 years.
I understand that I cannot provide you a specific timeframe of when the issue will be fix and you want us to move all your folders and emails to an email service that has a proper infrastructure. Please be informed that we can only deal with our own server therefore we cannot transfer your email to a different email platform. To avoid inconvenience due to the issue that we have, I would suggest to use a different email client that you prefer like gmail, outlook, etc.
Please be informed that the email that we provide free and it is not part of the contract that you have agreed with, which is why it is simple and basic email platform. It is not the same with other email Platform that has more capabilities. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to reply or call me on 0800 587 2677 anytime between 9:30am-5:00pm. I am here Monday-Friday."
Plusnet do not wish to support their webmail service anymore and suggest customers move off it.

Here is another email I received from the Customer Advocates team so there really isn't any point raising issues with the Customer Service teams anymore
------------------------------------------
I am sorry to hear about the issues with your Plusnet email. We do have a known issue wherein you will see issues like:
* Pages not loading
* Mail Disappearing
* Errors within webmail such as IMAP errors, Failed to Fetch command, Server error, IMAP terminated
* The inability to see folders
* Sent mail not arriving
We do not have a specific timeframe of when the issue will be fix but to try and alleviate this problem, please try the following:
Log into webmail
On the inbox list screen, select LIST OPTIONS which is the little grid icon on the left of the column title bar
Set sorting column to NONE
Click save
