Thunderbird cannot access Hotmail directly.
It is a webmail only service.
The only way to access hotmail with Thunderbird is to use some sort of gateway program to translate between POP and Hotmail's webmail.
One such program is "Webmail Retriever" you can find it at: http://www.apocgraphy.com/WebmailRetrieverRed
Hope that Helps!
OPTION 2
Use WEBMAIL add-ons (they work just like with firefox)
You will need two add-ons, "webmail" (main add-on) and "hotmail" (for hotmail, you can set up others for Yahoo etc.)
You can download add-ons from
webmail.mozdev.org
Follow the instructions from website (http://webmail.mozdev.org/setup.html)
Be careful to install webmail add-on before the hotmail one!

Once you enter the information and click okay, it will start some configurating then it will automatically finish.. EASY. hope I helped.AND with all due respect to the person below me. You probably wrote that while using an old thunderbird the newest which you can get from the mozilla site has a lot more to it and IS better to use, its worth updating often. Thanks, MissyElliotNo you cannot use Mozilla Thunderbird with hotmail, i have tried everything to my knowledge and nothing has worked, the simple fact is Mozilla Thunderbird does not support http servers except for gmail, (witch doesnt make since), the bottom line is, you cannot add a custom server URL (witch in this case the hotmail server is, http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.com)
