I disagree : Internet and emails are a structural change that challenge the fundamental raison d'être, the role of the postal service.

Same as Internet challenge the role of France Telecom as a communication provider

La Poste transformation is required, otherwise they'll quickly become obsolete. And "in theory" they approach it the right way ? What are the values and strengths of la Poste ? It's commitment to public service, its network of offices around the country, the relationship and trust between the agents and the public... Then based on that you can rebuild a new set of services offered by la Poste

But of course the difference between theory and practice is that they may do these changes in a brutal, top-down fashion that leaves employees burnt-out :-(

And also, blaming the European Union for everything is a bad reflex that halps nationalist and Brexit-like parties
