No, hotmail is not a pop3 account and does not work with an email client. In order to use hotmail with an email client, an individual needs to purchase hotmail/msn's paying electronic-mail.
If you do want to use a email client since they are way better then using hotmail, someone on this site (including me) could send you a free Gmail (goodle mail) account invitation since Gmail is fully exclusive right now. If you want one, PM me your email and I will surely send you one.
