Get inbound email by id

Returns the full record for an inbound email received at one of your verified domains, including the parsed text and HTML bodies, threading metadata, SMTP envelope detail, webhook delivery state, and a replies array for any outbound sends recorded as replies to this inbound.

For listing inbound emails (with cursor pagination, status and date filters, and free-text search), use /emails. Outbound (sent) email records are NOT returned here; use /sent-emails/{id} for those.

The response carries four sender-shaped fields whose meanings overlap. from_email is the canonical "who sent this" field for most use cases (parsed bare address from the From: header, with a sender fallback). from_header is the raw header including any display name. sender and smtp_mail_from both carry the SMTP envelope MAIL FROM (return-path) and are equal by construction; sender is the older field name retained for compatibility. See primitive describe emails:get-email | jq '.responseSchema.properties' for per-field detail.
