After reading the second e-mail it is clear that they are trying to do something "official" and that their interest in the specific person is low (to say it mildly). Full of "going-forward" and similar corporate-speak. DANGER DANGER DANGER: when someone loses natural language, he is no longer speaking for himself.

What a pitiful world we live in.

I wish someone would write a serious corporate-speak dictionary, list the most used phrases and what they usually mean, explain different levels of formality etc.

Seconded. As a foreigner it is even harder to recognize such phrases for what they are and interpret them correctly.
