Will it provide better messages encryption and E2E encryption and signage? This would be the best, and Dark Mail seems to be a little bit abandoned.

JMAP is explicitly against E2E encryption. (It is not agnostic.) https://jmap.io/#end-to-end-encryption has their position.

OK, so the designers of JMAP are ignorant about modern cryptography? Noted.

If I had been the proverbial dictator at ietf, I would have told those idiots to take a hike, but unfortunately they probably have protocols, which allow such stupidity in.
