The 'url' may be defined in the config, or else a 'url_field' may be configured so that the link can be pulled from the message. The retrieved content is stored on the message in the configured 'field'.
If an error occurs, the error will be logged at 'error' level.
The retrieved content will be utf8 decoded.
