Give these a try:

Servers Settings:
Server Name: localhost	Port 1065

Outgoing Server (SMTP)
Description: Webmail
Server Name: localhost
Port: 1066
Username: youremailusername at domain
Secure Connection: TLS (if available)

Tools|Addons|WebMail double-click:

POP
Port: 1065
Enable at startup

SMTP
Port: 1066

IMAP:
Port 143:
No longer needed with hotmail - no need to check 'Enable at startup'.

"Some OS's block ports below 1024, set the ports used by Webmail to
values higher then 1024"
