I'm not sure, but I know normal email allows
deleting from server. On the other hand, deleting
gmail only removes your access to it. I'd guess
that this is all connected to hotmail basically
being webmail. You can retrieve it via pop client,
but it's still webmail.

Have you considered using your ISP email, or
getting your own domain? There are also email
accounts one can get for something like $2/month.
But I have my own domain and website for
$9/month, with as many email accounts as I want,
which I control. In that sense, $2/month seems
steep.

However you look at it, if you don't pay for
legitimate email in some way then you're using
an ad-supported, spyware service that's free,
so you can hardly expect them to respect your
wishes.
