How to define Recipients of sioc:Posts/Items

Hi All,

When talking about different kinds of social spaces (e.g., email,
skype [1], twitter [2], ...) there is a need to define recipient(s) of
messages / items. SIOC currently can define creator (sender) of a
post, but not recipients.

We need to find / define a property in SIOC for defining them. Most
straighforward approach would be to define a property has_recipient
(inverse: recipient_of) with domain sioc:Post or sioc:Item and range
of sioc:User.

Questions:
1) is sioc:User appropriate? is the recipient an online account (thus
a sioc:User) or a person / agent (thus foaf:Person / foaf:Agent)?
2) should we distinguish between primary recipient(s) and others?
3) ...

What are your suggestions and what existing work can we take examples
and ideas from?
How is this handled when expressing email messages in RDF?
