How did you configure Outlook to access your hotmail account? Are you using the Microsoft Office Outlook Connector, or did you configure Outlook for Pop3 access?
Click Tools | Account Settings, does your hotmail account show as MAPI or POP/SMTP?
If you set it up as Pop3, the only way to get them back on the server is to email (forward) them to your hotmail account. You'd also need to configure Outlook to leave a copy of all emails on the Server: Tools | Account Settings, Change, More Settings, Advanced tab.
If you are using the Outlook Connector, Outlook does not remove anything from the hotmail server, it only stores a copy onto the PC. Whatever is in the hotmail inbox in Outlook is still on the hotmail Server, and accessible via the web interface.
To remove them, you have to delete them, or drag them to another folder.
