Which version of Outlook Express are you using? I believe you need to have version 5.0 and above to be able to setup a Hotmail account.
You can figure out which version you have by opening up Outlook Express and then clicking on the Help menu and choosing About.
Hotmail uses a system that isn't POP or IMAP based but when you setup the account in Outlook Express it gives you an exclusive option for adding a Hotmail acocunt.
