Salvage of #2794 by @CharmingGroot, ported to the relocated plugins/platforms/email/adapter.py: - Guard raw_email = msg_data[0][1] against IndexError/TypeError and non-bytes payloads. UIDs are added to _seen_uids before fetch, so an exception mid-batch permanently skipped every remaining message in the batch — now the bad message is logged and skipped instead. - Message-ID domain generation falls back to 'localhost' when EMAIL_ADDRESS lacks '@' (now via a shared _message_id_domain() helper covering all 3 send paths; the PR fixed 2 of 3).

One malformed IMAP fetch response can no longer silently lose messages — the email adapter marks UIDs seen before fetching, so an unguarded
