The emails wherever they are should be stored as “flat text” / ASCII text.
So if you know phrases or unusual words in the email, recipient’s email addresses,
etc., you could search for them with “grep” - the standard unix-toolkit
pattern-matcher.
As you don’t know where to look, you might fire it up through “find” with something
like
find . -type f -exec grep ‘contraoscillating’ {} \;
