I think the service is available for premium users.

in outlook and outlook express you need to choose a server type of HTTP, not pop3

when you create an account in outlook the first question asked is the server type. its there that you choose HTTP rather than pop3 or imap etc
unfortunately your spam filter is not going to work with hotmail if it is expecting a pop3 and smtp server for incoming and outgoing server because, simply, hotmail does not support it.

hotmail has an 'unwanted mail' filter itself that you can set up through their webmail site though.
You can set it to different 'security' levels.... of which i only find the last one good... you can set it to discard or unwanted mail or to deliver it to you 'bulk mail' folder etc etc.
It will use those settings even if you use your hotmail acount via outlook or outlook express.

It does support hotmail because it says on my spam filter software that it supports hotmail.
