You can't use POP3 server for your Hotmail account if you have not
subscribed Hotmail Plus.

If you want to use Outlook Express to access your Hotmail account, you must
have an MSN subscription, or Hotmail Plus. For more information, visit the
following Microsoft Web site:

See this about reading Hotmail in OE:

Just to satisfy my curiosity, I did have OE configured to download Hotmail a
few years ago, but since it would not download them unless I clicked
Send/Receive (for some reason), I deleted the Hotmail from OE. The other
day I downloaded the Windows LiveOne Care toolbar (the toolbar only, which
is free) and typed in my other email account. Since then, after I
configured OE to receive the Hotmail, I have been getting my Hotmail on the
OE. Is this because I had it before or is it because I now have the Live
One Care toolbar?

You can't use a POP3 server for MSN Hotmail, period. Unless Hotmail has
legacy account using POP3 servers as MSN does.

You can use MS Outlook Express configured for HTTPMail with MSN Hotmail
accounts; if those accounts were so configured _before_ Sept. 26, 2004, ro
thereabouts. Long enough ago that I am no longer certain of the exact
date.
