Email Attachment Download
Download all attachments from a specified email, and save to cloud storage.
Typically used inside an Iterator component that loops over the Email ID values previously acquired from an Email Query component. The idea is that the Email Query component retrieves emails that match specific criteria. This shared job is used afterwards to download all the attachments from those emails.
