This email was likely unearthed during pre-trial discovery (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discovery_(law)) when Macy's sued Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia (MSLO) for breach of contract when MSLO decided to start selling its formerly-exclusive-to-Macy's products to JCPenney. It was probably found by searching for the keyword "Martha" in the emails of certain top JCPenney executives. That trial has already revealed many important emails about the Martha/JCPenney deal.
