Re: Do not understand the issue
I am British.
This appears to me to be pretty trivial, what actually is the issue?
Not sure if you are trolling, but I'll bite.
I'm British too, btw. So Americans may feel free to correct me.
The issues as I understand it are:
1/ By setting up and using a private email server, she effectively bypasses the Freedom Of Information Act (just the same as in Britain) because any requests for emails will only show those sent through the official mail system.
2/ There are very stringent rules (both in the US and the UK) about the handling of sensitive and or secret information, which include rules about what can and cannot be sent by email.
By setting up her own mail server at home, she effectively nullifies the security procedures set up to protect confidential information, and contravenes those rules.
