Get email message metadata

Changed on

Retrieves metadata about a single email message. This route includes additional metadata not available when listing messages, such as parsed links from the text or HTML body, and attachment md5sums.

To get even more information about message attachments, like filenames, see the Attachments API.

To get the entire original SMTP message, see the "raw" message route.
