She is currently under investigation by the FBI for this.

P.S. search for 'mini' to get granular breakdowns of H's schedule.

Two problems (at least):
- that is not permitted especially when handling Confidential/TopSecret material. You have to use their services/devices/etc so that they maintain control and accountability.
- all communication with public officials is archived and made public (once vetted/redacted as appropriate I'd assume), and is part of public record. If using private services, those communications will also be made public.

Initially, she claimed there was no classified information on the server at any time. Further, when she was required to turn over records to comply with archival rules, she had her staff delete the personal messages and pass the rest along.
In the current investigation, they've discovered classified emails - some classified after the fact, some not - which included KH-designated intelligence (aka detailed satellite images). In addition, when she delivered the data to the State Department, she gave a copy of all of it to her lawyer, who didn't have clearance for the classified data.. which shouldn't have been there anyway.
Yes, previous Cabinet-level staff had used private servers but the National Archives explicitly recommended against it in 2006 (a recommendation, not law) and then President Obama signed an Executive Order making it the law in 2009. Secretary Clinton continued doing it until she left the State Department in 2013.
At minimum, it was disregard for the recommendations and eventual law. At worse, it was flagrant disregard for protecting the means and methods - that includes people - who collected and needed that information.

Hillary Clinton used her on personal email server and address to conduct official business while serving as Secretary of State for the US (she's not the first to do this, Sarah Palin - former Governer of Alaska had similar problems I believe).

Is that all communication period, or only communication with them while they're acting in their capacity as a public official?
How do public officials keep their legitimately personal business private? (E.g., having an affair). Can their personal email accounts be opened up and made public at any time? I'm curious.

#19Neat, but the search interface needs some work. You can choose a sender/recipient but you can't specify whether they are the sender or receiver. I was trying to sort by all emails sent by H, but you don't seem to be able to do that. Still very cool. Favorite headline so far: H: HIGHLY IMPORTANT! COMPREHENSIVE INTEL REPORT ON LIBYA.
