the problem is that hotmail does not play particularly nice on Android. Try these settings:

Step 1

Go to the Mail application > New Account > Other (POP3/IMAP).

Step 2

Put in your hotmail email and password > Protocol is POP.

Step 3

Pop server is pop3.live.com > Security type is SSL > Server port is 995.

Step 4

Click login required > Username and password is your hotmail email and password.

Step 5

SMTP server is smtp.live.com > Security type is TLS > Server port is 25.
