Is the state of mail user agents that sad?
I'm still fine with Thunderbird as a MUA (more or less). Using number 1 and 4 as shortcuts to mark an email as "todo" or "urgent". Invitation to appointments (ics file format) can be accepted as well. Integration of contacts is a paint point though.
For email automation I have written a lightweight CLI in Rust [1] which supports MIME and SMTP. I'm currently integrating sendmail's capabilities as well, so that it can be used both as a MUA (message user agent) and MTA (mail transfer agent). Cargo's feature flags will hopefully give you a UNIX-like experience (only compile the features you want to use).
In general, I share your sentiment. Email is still the best protocol to contact people outside of your organization. It's a pitty that encrypted email somehow haven't prevailed. The matrix protocol might be better suited for standardized and encrypted communication.
I would argue that every citizen should get a state-issued email address which then can be used for official communication with public authorities (signing and encrypting being a prerequisite). In Germany, you still get so much paper via regular mail. Even the Covid-19 quarantine order is send by post. It only arrives when quarantine is already over. (Admittedly, you get this order by phone, too, and they are asking for your email address.)
