Hotmail doesn't have a POP server name. It's an HTTP mail server type which
is directly supported in OL2003 but you need a paid Hotmail account

Outlook (not Outlook Express, but Office Outlook) does support Hotmail,
but as fas as I know, only for 'older' hotmail accounts. I believe the
addresses for POP3 and SMTP were mail.hotmail.com (both). But you can
also check out the various 3rd POP3 solutions that can be used with
Outlook to send and receive hotmail items.

I use hotmail popper.
