What is "everything"?
 
Since September 1, WebDAV access to Live Hotmail/MSN accounts has been
disabled.
For Outlook 2003 and 2007, you can use the use the Outlook Connector
instead.
For Outlook 2002 and previous, you'll have to configure it with POP3
instead.
If you are using Outlook Express, use Windows Live Mail instead (success or
Outlook Express).

For more details and the new account configuration see;

You'll need to use POP3 -

To continue to receive e-mail from your Hotmail account, you need to select
one of the methods below to connect to Hotmail after September 1, 2009.
After this date, new e-mail can only be delivered to your mail programs
through the following solutions.

If you use Outlook 2003/2007, you can download the free Outlook Connector to
continue receiving Hotmail. If you're using Outlook 2002, you will need to
change the account to use POP3. If you use Outlook Express to view Hotmail,
you can choose between downloading Windows Live Mail (free) or reconfigure
your account to use POP3. See
