Even though you raised the issue, it does not preclude them form starting a legal process. Once a summons is received then prescription is raised as a defence.
Of course, if a matter goes to court, and prescription is succesfully raised, and there was a prior communication, the court may award punitive costs as they will not be happy with the matter having come to court.
You are not clear if you received summons for this matter. You need to apply for a recission of the judgement, either because you did not get any notice of proceedinsg or you got notice, sent the email and thought it was resolved (and received no furtehr communications.)
