There are so many email apps and clients out now that a user never knows which ones are worth trying.

For me the killer features would be:

1. Look through my entire history of emails to figure out who my friends are

2. Remind me to email them more frequently

Like a CRM, but its just to email to friends.

There is no pricing on this. Do you know how much it will be?
On that request - I would try contactually. Pretty good on that front.
I really liked Contactually as a personal CRM because it could look into all the different messaging systems and tell me when I talked to someone last, but then I believe Facebook / LinkedIn etc shut down that functionality.

Is there anything of this sort out there for individuals for networking purposes? Not trying to sell these folks anything. I want to be told what my last touchpoint with someone was, when, where, regardless of what platform that was done on. That would be so useful.

I think Accompany was supposed to do that originally but they pivoted into something else?

Exactly. I wonder if contactually would just get rid of the team features and give a personal use price.
The price is not much if I want to organize my sales force but it seems a lot just to stay in touch with friends.
