Problem With Outlook in Windows Live Mail

When BT said they were stopping my email account ( some time ago) because I moved broadband providers, I set up an account with Outlook.com. With BT I also had another Yahoo email used for shopping etc. However I'm still getting emails on all three accounts?

The main problem I have is not being able to cancel on all the accounts simultaniously. When I cancel emails on Outlook they are still there on both BT emails and vice versa. These accounts all show on the same page but listed on the left hand side as BTinternet and Outlook and I can switch between them.

Can anyone shed any light on this PLEASE. ? My system is Windows8. Thanks.

    It's only the btinternet email that's linked to your broadband provider, the yahoo and outlook.com accounts will continue whatever your provider until you close them down permanently.

    I don't entirely follow your second paragraph, but it sounds like you might have set one of your accounts to retrieve emails from all three accounts.
