And until I switched to using gmail and keeping ALL my email there so I can access it anywhere, I used to do the same. In fact, I have the original emails, going way back to the start of the TAR list over 20 years ago on an older PC that has not been powered on in a few years.
But to get the latest 5 years, it was easier just to pay the $40 fee to use their email extractor then setting up a temporary email client, downloading 5 years worth email, and then sorting through it. Count it a lazy way to solve the problem in only a few minutes for less than I often spend for eating out.
