This is (#&*$ing bad.

Read and weep. If you are in IT get your head shakes and WTFs out of the way before hand.

Clearly she wanted to control what stayed hiddenn and what the public she claims to serve, got to see. That's not her choice to make.

I thought I heard last night that 100% of the emails she composed as Secstate were on her personal server. She didn't use her official email account once? Not once?

Huge story.

And it was not the first server. They are running Exchange 2010 which was not available when first setup. Something else was running before - Exh 03 ? 07? Any gov IT guy would be fired.

Yep, or sent to sweep the bathroom for the rest of their career

I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that any correspondence coming from the Secretary of the State has some kind of classification level to it....to propagate/store that information on a Non-Classified personal server is reckless at the very least.....

Didn't Snowden take classified information and e-mail it to Non-classified e-mail systems......how did that turn out.
