I view email as merely one way of exchanging RFC2822-formatted messages. There are others and RFC2822 is robust enough to serve as a good standard base that allows both free-form and structured content, including mixed.
+1 on RFC2822 as universal message format. It is simple, easy to understand, trivial to manipulate in any programming language and widely supported. Standard file formats, along with standard protocols, both without "proprietary extensinos" is the key to maintaining decentralization and avoiding siloing of data and users. Cheers! Dave
