You buy a mac to be free of microsoft's shittiness then dare to use hotmail?

I have no sympathy for you whatsoever.

Hotmail removed POP, which would allow you to do this.

One way you could get Hotmail through a program would be to download Thunderbird, and then get the WebMail extension: http://webmail.mozdev.org/, and then download the Hotmail extension, follow the instructions and you'll be reading hotmail messages through Thunderbird.
