Not waving but drowning

[#1]

I have recently signed up with plusnet for broadband and homephone and am now so confused that my old dial-up connection is beginning to look wonderful.  Why is it so complicated?  I have set up 3 addresses in Outlook Express but all mail comes into one.  On startup, my laptop tells me I have 17 unread messages but I have no idea where they are as there are only 6 in my inbox - all read.  I am sinking under a heap of passwords, addresses, mailboxes, logins and emails from plusnet - including one about broadband phone (which I know nothing about) and I no longer know if I am accessing all my emails.  Any suggestions as to how I can simplify all this - please?  Sorry about the rant, just be grateful you can't see me stamping like a 2 year old and whining 'it's not fair'.

Given the fundamental nature of the problem and the difficulty of diagnosing it at arms length could I suggest phoning support on 0114 296 5198 during your free call period and get them to talk you through the settings and the problem you are getting. If that doesn't work come back.
