The need to shell out to vim or whatever is what always kept me from using Mutt, despite loving its UI. aerc isn't quite as colorful or well-laid-out as Mutt but this is very promising. This reminds me a lot of my all-time favorite mail editor, which I miss dearly: GoldED [0] [1] [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GoldED [1] https://blog.onlime.ru/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/CwkTcNSWQA...

Some color would be nice. (I quite like Irssi's color scheme)

Irssi's default color scheme which, incidentally, is the same as Mutt's default. Both can be changed. For example, to a solarized color scheme.
