Hi Jennifer,

You will never get Windows Mail to work with a HTTP (website) email server. A good option for you is to switch to Windows Live Mail instead. It will automatically integrate your Windows Mail messages and accounts into it and you can have your Hotmail account in there all at the same time. It is much better in my opinion. Here is the link for it.

Windows Live Mail Beta
