I need to locate some emails from the archive. Kerio is set to archive emails on a daily basis, keeping the last 2 months.

From the mail log, I found entries like:

[09/Oct/2012 18:02:20] Recv: Queue-ID: 5074589c-00004ddb, Service: SMTP, From: <info@XXXXXXXXXXXX>, To: <Suzette@xxxxxxxxxxx>, Size: 699, Sender-Host: mail.XXXXXXXXXXX, User: automailer@XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

I need to locate this specific email. The archive folder has a lot of ZIP files like:

2012-Oct-06
2012-Oct-07
2012-Oct-08
2012-Oct-09
...

I assumed this would be in the 2012-Oct-09 zip file. I extracted it, and the zip file contains a lot of emails in the /#msgs/ folder, named:

0000000a.eml
0000000b.eml
0000000c.eml
...

I did a search for the last part of the Queue-ID, 00004ddb, but it returned no results. I tried other random searches for other emails in the mail log, but I couldn't find a single one.

Any idea how one goes about finding such an email in the archive?
