Hey Krishna,

As per the standard functionality, on conversion of lead, emaiil will be updated only on Contact object. Also there is no standard email field on the Account object. 
However you want to do your own logic then you'll need to write a trigger on the lead object: 
trigger LeadTrigger on Lead (before update) 
{
    for(Lead lead : trigger.new) 
    {
        if (Lead.IsConverted)
        {
            // do something with the converted leads
        }
    }
}

Additionally, you can programmatically convert leads in your apex code(http://salesforce.stackexchange.com/questions/17616/can-i-use-an-apex-trigger-to-set-a-lead-to-converted)

Please mark this as best answer if the information helps.
