Re: Turn off my plusnet webmail?

you need to be a lot more specific as webmail can't be turned off - just stop using it

how do you propose to collect the emails which normally go there

Re: Turn off my plusnet webmail?

I do not use the mail .....@plusnet; some years ago I spoke with someone at technical & they switched it off.

I had to turn it back on a year or so for personal reasons.

Now I do not use it at all, I use gmail & outlook.rather than leave it gathering dust so as to speak I'd like it switched off; the thought of an unused email account sitting there doing nothing bothers me so hence the request.

If it cannot be done via the website then I'll just give the tech dept a call.

That is a different question and I don't know any method of removing the email package from your account although you could delete all the unused mailboxes leaving only the default one which you could then ignore having made sure that your contact details are to another email address https://www.plus.net/my.html?action=myemail&s=1&redirected=yes

Hi there @chuffchuff

We can remove the mail component from your account which would effectively delete all Plusnet mailboxes associated.

If you are happy to go ahead this is something I'm more comfortable with doing over the phone, so please private message me with your username and the best time to call next week (between the hours of 9 and 6)

Thanks.
