What form would such a URI take?
Can be an IMAP (draft-ietf-lemonade-rfc2192bis-02.txt) or HTTP URL.


Could reasonably be a mailto: URL, too, which might merely identify the email address the mail arrived at, as a fallback. (OMA's EMN format uses a non-IANA registered scheme for that kind of thing, too).


IMHO the account and message identification considerations belong in draft-ietf-sieve-notify rather than in the XMPP "profile" thereof (which
would simply provide an instantiation of those considerations).
Maybe you are right, but I don't think that draft-ietf-sieve-notify can prescribe any particular URI type, because this would vary from one deployment/implementation to another.


It could say "Notifications SHOULD include a URL for the recipient to use as a hint for locating the message. Where the nature of the notification allows, this SHOULD be marked in a machine-readable manner (such as an attribute in XML)."
