If the email is stored in the client (POP) instead of on the server (IMAP)
then it's probably in your home directory in a hidden subdirectory (name
starts with a period).  Otherwise it may be in /var/mail.

With proprietary software installed system-wide (not in /home) it's
probably easiest to just reinstall it in whatever form it came in (package
or shell script).  Licenses could be on a remote server, in the app's
install directory, in /etc somewhere or in your home directory.
