In it's wisdom Microsoft has decided not to support pop3 on win Rt and win 8.
Is talktalk a pop3 account.
If so Google "pop3 win 8" and you will find many discussions of solutions.

That doesn't make sense. What email client are you referring to (there are very many to choose from)?
I have several Win8 installs running (*including a Win8.1) and have had no email issues at all.

Quote The Mail app, which comes with Windows 8 and Windows RT, doesn't support adding email accounts that use POP (Post Office Protocol). If your email account uses POP and you want to get it on your PC, here are some options:
If you want to use the Mail app and keep your current account, contact your email provider and ask if they can change your account to use IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) or EAS (Exchange ActiveSync).
Quote Note
Google has indicated that as of January 30, 2013, it intends to stop support for new EAS (Exchange ActiveSync) connections in some scenarios.

Microsoft actually stopped including any mail app in Windows when it got to Windows 7, so it seems odd to include one in W8. Probably doing it to match Apple.
(XP had Outlook Express and Vista had it's own Mail program which was similar to OE, but started pushing the downloaded Live Mail)
Having had a quick look at it, and read a bit online, it does seem to be rather basic.

It DEMANDED that I sign in with a Microsoft account.
So I didn't bother and have no idea if it's been updated to support POP or not...

Rumour has it that the upgrade in August may include pop3.
