Like HTTP should have been replaced by AOL, right?

No. And I resent the fact that you couldn't be bothered to read past my first sentence.

The e-mail protocol (and I'm talking about the entire stack, from SMTP to the client's handling) is old and really not best suited for the modern way we send documents and modern security concerns. Which was the crux of my point.

So I'm not talking about replacing the paradigm nor ownership, just it's the implementation.
