In human-readable messages, human language can be used to update or recall information that was conveyed in prior messages. Accordingly, there needs to be a machine-readable mechanism that allows to express the update or recall of information of structured data.
Initial suggestion:
Structured data SHOULD be updated, if a later email message with a SUPERSEDES header field ([RFC4021]; "superseding messing") referencing the message id of the original email message is processed. In this case, structured data of the original message should be fully revoked and replaced by the structured data of the superseding message (which might be empty).
Structured data in a superseding message MUST be ignored if:
Structured data from the original message is not or cannot be revoked
In particular, if the original message has already been replied to by the recipient
