I queried GitHub archive and got the mail encrypted.

The mail that I got in the query - 9b2aaf20c3f2c0c9b21ada60e9bca6ef34b3dbc7@outlook.com

The mail it suppose to be - phil12328@outlook.com

Anyone knows how to decrypt it?

Looks like this is sha1 hash and not an encryption.

sha1("phil12328") -> "9b2aaf20c3f2c0c9b21ada60e9bca6ef34b3dbc7"

Since hashes are one-way functions, there's no easy way going backward to the original input. However, there are online tools doing reverse lookup like http://reverse-hash-lookup.online-domain-tools.com/ where you give them hash and if they have a match you get a potential matching input
