But there is nothing in the Act (or GDPR) about revealing the format in
which you hold the data. "We hold your name and email address" - end of
story. The fact that it might be on numerous emails is neither here nor
there, and in fact none of their business if those emails do not contain any
further personal data about them.
Best wishes,

Subject: Re: SAR - Access to emails
As Andrew says one would not normally regard the content of work emails as
personal data of the staff.
Although on a different topic ICO guidance on Info in Complaints files gives
a good insight into this.
With an insistent subject I have occasionally used something like this
formula when sending PD "In addition we confirm that we hold many emails on
your account which contain your personal data, namely your name and email
address, but no other personal data relating to you as defined in the Act.
If you think we may have missed some personal data which is, exceptionally,
contained in these emails could you please provide is with some indication
of the nature of the data - we are happy to carry out any reasonable and
proportionate searches of the account. "
