So that company server must have been similar in nature to what you are describing.

But the copies that I had loaded into my computer hard drive did not disappear nor did the backup that I store in a remote hard drive (my aww-**** contingency). No matter what happened, I had those and they proved to be most valuable on a couple of occasions...

So how did Clinton make all of those disappear for everyone who had received them and stored them either on a laptop hard drive, or backed up onto a remote hard drive? I realize that gov't employees are not supposed to back up items to remote hard drives, but it DOES get done and not everyone of those 30,000 deleted emails went to a gov't person... How the heck did she do this?

*edit - was still typing when stomach monkey wrote in - thanks

She didn't. So either the people who have something incriminating don't want to get involved, have something that can be held over them, are on her side anyway, etc. I would imagine that quite a few of them were internal to others in the state dept. who may be employed only by the political will of the incumbent office holders... Also possibly people who work for other governments, etc.
