Fetch Single Email by UID or Sequence Number
Assuming the UID is known, download a single email by UID from an IMAP mail server.Chilkat Rust Downloads
// This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

// body.

// Show the total size of the email, including body and attachments:
println!("{}", email.size());
// When a full email is downloaded, we would use the
// 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:
