In windows phone 8.1 preview do you still get a hotmail tile for @hotmail or @live address. or do you get an outlook tile no matter which of the 3 you have
 
Microsoft has merged all the mail services to outlook. So all the microsoft addresses (i.e. hotmail, live or outlook) would show as outlook as of now.
 
My Hotmail icon also got changed into an Outlook icon, and honestly, this makes sense, since Hotmail and Live email addresses also worked as part of Outlook. The icon doesn't look bad either.
 
I don't like it because I have both outlook and live address's and prefer to keep the mailboxes separate and it's hard to distinguish between them on the start screen. Bring back the old live/hotmail icon! Or at least have "choose an icon" option :)
