(491 posts)You also realize the report mentioned emails that are not already released which seems to indicate they may have some of those 30k deleted emails that were wiped off the server. They also weren't about yoga, they were about things in the report like hacking attempts and fun stuff.
The 55k refers to the number of pages. You'll recall she printed the emails out to make it more difficult, I mean more transparent on everyone involved.

(25,816 posts)Another lie, as there were no e-mails found for her job for the first coupla months.
That tidbit was in the report too. So, what, she neither sent nor received e-mails
in months on the job?

[div class="
NARA agrees with the foregoing assessment but told OIG that Secretary Clintons production of 55,000 pages of emails mitigated her failure to properly preserve emails that qualified as Federal records during her tenure and to surrender such records upon her departure. OIG concurs with NARA but also notes that Secretary Clintons production was incomplete. For example, the Department and OIG both determined that the production included no email covering the first few months of Secretary Clintons tenurefrom January 21, 2009, to March 17, 2009, for received messages; and from January 21, 2009, to April 12, 2009, for sent messages. OIG discovered multiple instances in which Secretary Clintons personal email account sent and received official business email during this period. For instance, the Department of Defense provided to OIG in September 2015 copies of 19 emails between Secretary Clinton and General David Petraeus on his official Department of Defense email account; these 19 emails were not in the Secretarys 55,000-page production. OIG also learned that the 55,000-page production did not contain some emails that an external contact not employed by the Department sent to Secretary Clinton regarding Department business. In an attempt to address these deficiencies, NARA requested that the Department inquire with Secretary Clintons internet service or email provider to determine whether it is still possible to retrieve the email records that might remain on its servers.99 The Department conveyed this request to Secretary Clintons representative and on November 6, 2015, the Under Secretary for Management reported to NARA that the representative responded as follows:
With regard to her tenure as Secretary of State, former Secretary Clinton has provided the Department on December 5, 2014, with all federal e-mail records in her custody, regardless of their format or the domain on which they were stored or created, that may not otherwise be preserved, to our knowledge, in the Departments recordkeeping system. She does not have custody of e-mails sent or received during the first few weeks of her tenure as she was transitioning to a new address, and we have been unable to obtain these. In the event we do, we will immediately provide the Department with federal record e-mails in this collection. 100
But she did not comply fully with the law and there is more.
Secretary Clinton (January 21, 2009 February 1, 2013): Former Secretary Clinton did not use a Department email account and has acknowledged using an email account maintained on a private server for official business. As discussed above, in December 2014, her representative produced to the Department 55,000 hard-copy pages of documents, representing approximately 30,000 emails that could potentially constitute Federal records that she sent or received from April 2009 through early 2013. Secretary Clintons representative asserted that, because the Secretary emailed Department officials at their government email accounts, the Department already had records of the Secretarys email preserved within its recordkeeping systems.97
