Try the Hotmail account in a new Named Identity, P, but 99% of the time
those errors denote problems on Hotmail's end.
Has the account ever worked in OE?
Is it a Hotmail (name@hotmail.com) account or an MSN (name@msn.com) account?
Sometimes when others get this error they find their ISP started using a
"transparent proxy server" which does not support WebDAV. See this archived
thread: http://snurl.com/1vxy.
Make certain your time, date, and /time zone/ settings are correct.

Temporarily disable your firewall, any "system" tools (NSW, NIS, anything by
Norton or McAfee) and pop-up/ad blockers to see if they're interfering.
How do you connect? Is the machine on a network? Related URLs (MTU

IE Tools>Internet Options>Advanced>HTTP 1.1>toggle between the two options.
IE Tools>Internet Options>Security>[zone in which OE runs (should be
Restricted Sites)]>Custom Level>User Authentication>Logon>toggle between
Anonymous Logon, Automatic Logon with Current Username and Password, and
Prompt for user name and password. (Anonymous Logon & Prompt for... both
work for me, but YMMV)
Resetting either or both of the above Tabs to the defaults might help, too.
