What about this:

select *
from emp
where Email =any (select Email from emp group by Email having count(*) = 1);

I also found a version without sub-query or self-join. At least from theory it should have the best performance from all.

SELECT 
    MAX(Empid) KEEP (DENSE_RANK FIRST ORDER BY NULL) AS Empid, 
    MAX(Deptid) KEEP (DENSE_RANK FIRST ORDER BY NULL) AS Deptid,
    Email
FROM emp
GROUP BY Email
HAVING COUNT(*) = 1;

Neat. I was going to suggest the `keep (dense_rank first)` approach but you've saved me the trouble. I think this construction gets overlooked as the syntax is a bit verbose compared to a nested analytic `count`, but it's nice to do the whole thing in a single `group by`. – William Robertson Feb 09 '18 at 10:01

You may use COUNT analytical function.

SQL Fiddle

Oracle 11g R2 Schema Setup:

CREATE TABLE emp 
    (Empid int, Deptid int, Email varchar2(16))
;

INSERT ALL 
    INTO emp  (Empid, Deptid, Email)
         VALUES (39, 42, '[email protected]')
    INTO emp  (Empid, Deptid, Email)
         VALUES (38, 43, '[email protected]')
    INTO emp  (Empid, Deptid, Email)
         VALUES (37, 44, '[email protected]')
    INTO emp  (Empid, Deptid, Email)
         VALUES (25, 35, '[email protected]')
    INTO emp  (Empid, Deptid, Email)
         VALUES (26, 36, '[email protected]')
SELECT * FROM dual
;

Query 1:

SELECT Empid, Deptid, Email
  FROM (SELECT e.*, COUNT (Empid) OVER (PARTITION BY Email) ct
          FROM emp e)
 WHERE ct = 1

Results:

| EMPID | DEPTID |            EMAIL |
|-------|--------|------------------|
|    26 |     36 | [email protected] |
|    25 |     35 | [email protected] |

You can use a not exists query to do that:

select e1.*
from emp e1
where not exists (select *  
                  from emp e2
                  where e2.empid <> e1.empid
                    and lower(e2.email) = lower(e1.email));

Another option:

select empid
from emp
where email in (select email 
                from emp
                group by email
                having count(*) = 1);
