What it does
Look up one email the platform sent you by the reference on its last line (ref M-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX) — what fired it, when, and where the request came from.
Requires authentication.
What happens
A single read of your own mail ledger. A mistyped reference is refused before any read; a reference that belongs to another account reads as not found.
