Signal acts as a central key server and can present different identity keys to users, so signal itself can middle communications unless there is out-of-band verification of identity keys. This is described here https://www.ndss-symposium.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/09... (II. Background) and many other places.

A web app store that provides "webxdc apps" which can be shared in chat messengers, end-to-end encrypted and offline-first and without requiring app-specific hosting or platforms. Webxdc apps can run on Delta Chat (e-mail) and Cheogram (XMPP) messengers so far.

The default mode of Delta Chats "email interaction" setting is "show only chat messages". This includes replies to messages you sent out from Delta Chat, even if the reply came from another email app or a webmail interface. So you can chat with anyone who you know the email address from.

If you set email interaction to "all" then you see regular email appearing as a "contact request" if you haven't already accepted the sender. In current development repos there is already support for mailing lists, and for html-mail. With this and a few other improvements, delta chat can be used as an e-mail client in more situations.
