Appears so. Go to your e-Miles "Account Statement" page and you should see a message like this:
"XXX XXXX, you're being rewarded for you time by Delta Air Lines® in Delta SkyMiles!"
If you go to your e-Miles "Deposits" page you also should see this:
"You have chosen to earn e-Miles® miles with Delta Air Lines®."
Would have been nice if e-Miles would have informed their members what was going on, but perhaps they figured it was "a given" since one airline absorbed the other.
At least wih e-Miles, the redemption "rates" are staying the same with Delta as they were with NW (500 pts for 500 miles). With e-Rewards, the terms for Delta redemptions only allow one exchange every 180 days. (With NW, it was one redemption allowed every quarter.)
Best,
