Fetch Single Email by UID or Sequence Number

Assuming the UID is known, download a single email by UID from an IMAP mail server. C++

#include <CkImap.h>
#include <CkEmail.h>

    // email.NumAttachments property in conjunction with the
    // email.GetMailAttach* methods.
    // However, when an email object contains only the header,
    // we need to access the attachment info differently:
    int numAttach = imap.GetMailNumAttach(email);
