I realize this may not be exactly what you're looking for but it's a step in
the right direction.
At least you may be able to find out some details about this person.

Depending on which mail server software you use, you could probably
configure it to reject all messages from that person. Of course, nothing
will stop them from creating another account and restarting the entire
process. I'm not sure that even reporting the abuse to Hotmail will stop
them, since all they have to do is create a new account with a different
name.
How about configuring your mail server software to accept all messages from
that person and then dump them in a temp mailbox for review or trash?
Eventually they'll just give up if they don't get any responses back from
their efforts. I could be wrong though. You don't need me to tell you that
there are really twisted and determined "people" out there.

Subject: OT: Locate IP Address on Internet [7:3611]
Dear Group,
I've seen this talked about now and then but I haven't had a need to use
it -
until now.
Say, 212.181.157.94 - a user on hotmail is starting to get abusive and the
headers indicate the email originated from that address.
What tools are available to get a handle on an IP address that is causing
problems?
