Recovering an accidentally archived email in Mail while OFFLINE

Hi, I had accidentally deleted an important email from my Gmail account.

Luckly I found it stored locally (and offline) in Mail on an old 2012 Iphone.

I accidentally archived it.

The "all mail" folder is empty on the iphone.

I am afraid that if I connect it to the internet, the email box will sync and I will lose the email forever.

What should I do? Can I "unarchive" it while staying offline?

Thanks!
