The problem of Hotmail not working on the kindle is due to setting issues.When setting up the account in the Fire, the default settings within the device seem to be wrong after the change with MSN, Hotmail, etc.. Use the "Other" email provider setting when adding your account
Set up your email using the IMAP settings that the moderator directed us towards
Use the following settings in your email app.
