My personal setup involve:
- a homeserver who grab emails from upstream and allow ssh access
- muchsync (who run over ssh) from my desktop(s)/laptop to the server
Doing so allow full sync, no need to sync mails in a maildir with other means, all you need is SSH. Sure it's not "P2P", there is still a central point of potential failure but the homeserver run many things, not just my mail so it's something I care more than the rest and it's anyway under my full control...
mu on it's side offer a nice extras (separate small binary who wrap external WebKit) to render html emails as a modern WebVM (the monsters commonly known as "browsers" for legacy reasons), while in most client (i.e. notmuch-emacs by default you just get text or shr-rendered html).
Outside Emacs I think there are one or two TUI (curses) client able to run or notmuch or mu, and a notmuch GUI (Astroid) who is not much comfy IMVHO. Notmuch also have a small external webserver with a built-in webUI but seems to be abandoned.
Unfortunately ALL use emails, almost nobody care to archive and use them on personal iron treating mails like a proprietary third party platform bound to an webmail... A day most will regret that, but still most would not learn anyway...
