For POP access, you have to enable it in your Hotmail account settings (accessed via the Hotmail website), but for IMAP access, the recommended setup, see this article:

TB may default to IMAP when you launch the account setup wizard (File/New/Existing Mail Account), so if you wish to have POP access, click on the Manual config. button after you enter your account credentials, and select POP.
