Unfortunately Rainmeter can't work with Hotmail. jsmorley explains it here pretty well.
Inactive, due to life changes. Send me a PM for any question.

You can certainly create a skin that has a way to "launch" hotmail, either in your browser or in whatever desktop app you desire, but there is no way to login to hotmail, nor to have the launcher display the current number of unread mails or other things you can do with gmail today.
