https://nypost.com/2018/11/09/james-comey-discussed-sensitive-fbi-business-on-his-private-email/Fired FBI chief James Comey used his private Gmail account hundreds of times to conduct government business and at least seven of those messages were deemed so sensitive by the Justice Department that they declined to release them.
The former top G-man repeatedly claimed he only used his private account for incidental purposes and never for anything that was classified and that appears to be true.
But Justice acknowledged in response to a Freedom of Information request that Comey and his chief of staff discussed government business on about 1,200 pages of messages, 156 of which were obtained by The Post.

law passed in 2014 and signed by President Barack Obama requires officials to forward work-related messages from their private accounts to an official one within 20 days.

It wasn't made illegal till AFTER they decided to target her.
Comey is a self serving self righteous hypocrite...I really don't care about his emails
