Any particular reason XMPP can't extended to support email-like usage? It's not like email is that special, apart from inertia and the fact that it's not going anywhere because of it.

XMPP can be extended to support anything. We could do http over xmpp if we wanted, but that doesn’t make it a good idea.

  There's also an RFC for SOAP transport over SMTP. Occasionally I threaten to implement it in order to upset somebody.
