iPhone provides the option to add your Email Account to its Mail App, which makes it easy to operate your Email Account from within the Mail App, without the need to login to your Email Account.
Once your Email Account is added to Mail App, you will find all your Email Messages in a Mail Folder, which will be named after the Name of your Email Service Provider.
For example, if you added your Gmail or Outlook Account to iPhone, the Mail Folder in the Mail App will be clearly named as Gmail or Outlook.
