Why there is no "IMAP GET" Tool Node for "standard" eMail Services?

Describe the problem/error/question

While building a workflow for my personal GMX Mailbox i came to the point when i want my agent to get my emails on user demand.
So i m using the smtp tool to send mails on demand but there is no tool iike “get new emails” for imap accounts.
Why is that? A technical problem?
i know i could get it down while calling a seperate workflow but it would be easier with just one node…

So its a question and maybe a feature request!
