OK, your settings look wank.  Go to Accounts section, and re-setup the mail servers and logins as per Hotmail's instructions

There's something radically wrong with that account. Have you tried removing it, restarting WLMail and then adding it back, accepting all the defaults in the wizard? If you have no NNTP accounts, Options > General tab > Use newsgroup Communities support features should not be selected.

And check that your AV is not scanning incoming and outgoing mail.
