I feel Email has evolved organically since eons and what we have today is like the way humans have evolved over millions of years. While the standard look and feel remains the same pretty much, it has become one's identity for receiving messages on the web of all forms and types, of all needs from commerce to friends to business. It is also a database of all our past communications. Apart that mobile adds further complexity. It is likely that any one answer for it can miss out things in the enthusiasm to bring out a simpler version or in the over-enthusiasm to make it complicated than what it should. It is hard to quantify the "needs" as it caters to a wide audience as a one stop answer. Slack like app can take away the professional side, or a Facebook can take away the social side, but no matter what, you still need a email as it serves as the identity to reach out for the Web applications. So whoever is building a new email App needs to keep all of this in mind and come out with something nifty yet powerful.
