    Hi Bob,

    Most recent version <draft-ietf-ipp-notify-mailto-02.txt>
    (internally dated 13 July, file date at IETF server 21 July),
    section 6.2 'Message Body', fourth paragraph, lines 925 to 927,
    bottom of page 16:

    "A Printer MUST send the following localized information in the message
    body. The specific working of this information and its layout are
    implementation dependent." (followed by a list on the top of page
    17 of various attributes that are MUST.

    A global search for MUST in this spec and a careful reading would
    be a good idea, but section 6.2 is normative for the body content.

    Cheers,
    - Ira
