Hi Chali, welcome aboard!
I'm glad that you like Becky - and I'm pretty sure: the longer you use it the more you will like it! 
Here's my settings for the hotmail plugin - you can use them as example 
1. the hotmail plugin

2. mailbox setup for hotmail:


some additional remarks:
* For being able to collect your messages from hotmail you need to have cookies allowed (the login requires qiute a lot of them...)
* If you are using a firewall, make sure that you allow Becky to use port 80.
* It might happen that you receive quite a lot of error messages when you try to collect your hotmail. Those are mostly related to time outs - especially if you are on a dial up connection... Reason is that the login procedure goes via several web pages. AFAIK there's not much you can do about it - except for trying repeatedly... For that reason it might be better not to include Hotmail in any automatic mail collection procedure...
HTH

Retrieving emails from hotmail means you need to unblock from many sites. As i use Naviscope, cookies and hide system information need to be unblocked in the list option to the following sites to be able to retrieve with Mailwasher(there may still be others) : services.msn.com oe.hotmail.com bay1.oe.hotmail.com law11.oe.hotmail.com pav1.oe.hotmail.com logginet.passport.com
