set up Mail with Hotmail account?

[GeoMacbook]

I downloaded this software called httpmail.tiger.universal that was supposed to help me with setting up my hotmail to use with the apples mail app. and when i try to install it, it says it only works with an older version of software....does anyone know how i can link my mail application to my hotmail?

You don't need special software to get Hotmail in your local client. Hotmail now supports POP3. This blog post from the Hotmail team tells you the settings that you need to use in your mail client of choice.
