When attempting to download attachments (and embedded resources), I receive an System.FormatException on the FileData property of the attachment:
```
System.FormatException
"The input is not a valid Base-64 string as it contains a non-base 64 character, more than two padding characters, or an illegal character among the padding characters."
```
My code looks like this:
```
var messages = Client.Folders["INBOX"].Search("UNSEEN");
foreach(var message in messages)
{
...
foreach(var attachment in message.Attachments)
{
attachment.Download();
}
}
```
Before downloading, every attachment shows the file name and size. It simply fails when executing the download method. I'm using hMailServer, .NET 4.5 and IMapX version 2.0.0.18.

I've downloaded a couple of .eml files containing an attachment and decoded the base64 strings they consist of. All of them resulted in valid attachments. Can you please advice?
