If you are looking for a way of sending an e-mail such as the ones sent by 
RSWUWFML2 but for only one particular work item I have had the same need 
myself.
I solved it by creating a function module which submitted RSWUWFML2 with a 
parameter which was the work item ID - and of course a corresponding 
modification of RSWUWFML2 which added this selection screen parameter (I 
added it visibly in the "Data for an individual run (Time Stamp Not Set)" 
section) and handles this parameter properly. It's not very difficult, you 
basically only need to locate the selection routines and select based on work 
item ID if the parameter is supplied, and locate the routine which updates 
time stamps and make sure that they are not updated when the parameter is 
supplied. Piece of cake and fun for a real ABAP programmer.
