You cannot configure Windows Mail to use a Web-based
e-mail account in Windows Vista

Http mail is not supported in Windows Mail. Hotmail is http (in all but
certain grandfathered cases). I don't know about Lycos, but that may be the
same issue.

WinMail can use POP3 and IMAP accounts but not HTTP accounts like Hotmail.
