I share your pain. :-( Hard to believe that the 80s or 90s were the
pinnacle of computing when it comes to email (not to mention newsgroups
although there is promise in ActivityPub related approaches).
Luckily, for me, davmail (currently) works. And I use POP to make sure
I have copies of all of my emails. Links from org to my emails will
always continue to work and I do not depend on the server once
downloaded.
