Unfortunately, there's no commingled inbox. The new Mail explicitly supports Exchange, Office 365, IMAP, and Google accounts, as well as POP - a huge achievement, compared to Windows 8.1's Metro Mail app. In this leaked beta version, People doesn't launch it's a toothless stub. The People app, which used to be chained to Windows 8.1 Mail and Calendar at the ankles and elbows, is now a freestanding app. In Windows 10, Mail and Calendar are actually one app, with a single build number, in this case 17.3925.42001.0. Final naming has yet to be announced, but it would be in character for the shipping versions to carry the Outlook brand.
The stars of this build: Mail and Calendar, which are different from (and superior to) the Mail and Calendar apps in Windows 8/8.1. If you want to install 10051 with a local account only, during the installation choose "This device belongs to me," then "Connect my account later." You'll be prompted for a local username and password. That said, the new features are intriguing. Build 10051 is clearly only for people who are hell-bent on tearing into the new features. Rumor has it that Microsoft will wait for build 10054 (or 10055?) to clear its internal testing cycle before releasing this latest manna to the masses - quite possibly later this week. The build seemed reasonably stable in my tests, but there are clearly some very rough edges.
