Make sure you haven't set up any filters to have things directly sent to deleted. Then make sure they aren't set up to send to spam and add to contacts, the email addresses of any emails you receive that you wish to actually get in your inbox. If none of this helps, then feel free to kick hotmail and try a better email service.
