what is an MTA?

When you do `(insert (buffer-string))', then you are already in the
mail buffer, so indeed you are only duplocating the content of the
mail buffer. You need to do something like this:
(defun org-mail ()
"Send mail of agenda to myself."
(org-batch-agenda "a")
(let ((str (buffer-string)))
(compose-mail diary-mail-addr "agenda")
(insert str)
(call-interactively (get mail-user-agent 'sendfunc))))
In the following two approach you are assuming that
(org-batch-agenda "a") would *return* the agenda. It does
not. Instead yu are trying to indert the return value
of this function (don't even know what it would be...)
into the agenda buffer, which is indeed read-only

Below the same problem as before...

Hope this helps.
