ok Folks, i've just noticed a news regarding hotmail.com will soon be replaced by a new MS service called outlook.com, which have noted that later on all existing hotmail services will have to change to the new site:

https://blogs.office.com/b/microsoft-outlook/archive/2012/07/31/introducing-outlook-com-modern-email-for-the-next-billion-mailboxes.aspx 

now the problem floats up from my head:
if they means that old hotmail services are to be terminated and we have to register a new email,  so that would mean who ever uses hotmail register their NF account get ____ed. 


did like to see how you guys think towards this prob.
some of you may troll with " dude you can simply change to another email ahead of that"
or whatever similar, but it is a potential problem might come across with for some unlucky dudes. 

thing is, how often you'll touch your email on this site after you get it verified anyway ?

Copied from the bottom of the page:

While today's preview is just the start, Outlook.com is ready now to become your primary email service. We're expecting millions of people to try it out. Starting today, you can get an @Outlook.com email address, and we've also made it easy to get started with your current email address if you want to.  

  • If you're a Hotmail customer and want to upgrade to the Outlook.com preview, just click "Upgrade" in the options menu of Hotmail. Your email address, password, contacts, old email, and rules will remain unchanged, and you can send/receive email from your @hotmail.com or @msn.com or @live.com address. You'll experience it all in the new Outlook.com preview user interface. You can also add an @Outlook.com email address to your account if you want.
  • Using Gmail, Yahoo, or another email service? No problem - it's easy to try the preview by going tohttp://www.outlook.com/. If you have a Microsoft account, just log in and get started. If you don't, it's easy to create a new account with an @Outlook.com email address. Then you can set up Gmail or your other email service to forward your mail to Outlook.com and import your contacts and messages by followingthese instructions . This will let you use both services for now, but we think that over time, most people will prefer Outlook.com.
  • Don't have an email address? Go to Outlook.com and create a new one and you'll be up and running.
Once you're using Outlook.com, you can also set it up on your phone (Windows Phone, iPhone, Android, Blackberry, or other phone), tablet (Windows 8, iPad, and Android), in the new Outlook 2013 Preview, or in other mail apps you might use. And because Outlook.com supports Exchange ActiveSync, you can set it up just like you would your Exchange or Hotmail account.  Have more questions? See our step-by- step guide to setting up Outlook.com on your phone. 


So...no. This will not affect your navyfield account.
