President Obama communicated with Hillary Rodham Clinton via email but didn’t know the “details” of how his secretary of state was using a private, off-the-books email address, the White House said Monday. “They did have the occasion to email one another. … He was not aware of the details of how that email address and how that server had been set up or how Secretary Clinton and her team were planning to comply with the Federal Records Act,” White House press secretary Josh Earnest told reporters. “The president did email with Secretary Clinton. I assume he recognized the email he was emailing back to.” It was revealed last week that Mrs. Clinton did not use an official government email address during her four years in charge of the State Department and conducted all business on a private account. The administration previously has said the president learned of the email scandal via news reports. Poster Comment: I guess when he received an email from @gmail.com it did not send star clusters up.

What a bonehead this mouthpiece is. He actually makes Obola look worse than he has to. What a dillrod. I do recall clearly that Obama uses a special iPad to receive copies of his daily security briefing. It seems likely that his emails would go through the same device. You don't see a computer on the desk in the Oval Office. And Obama is well-known as a hardcore Blackberry kind of guy. So if he was emailing on an iPad (or an Apple OSX computer) he would not see any actual email address on his screen, provided Hitlery's email address was in his Address Book. He would only see her name unless he had some reason to tap (or click) on it to change the address he was replying to. On some (older) email systems, they show you both name and email address on the To: line. With Apple Mail, they don't. You can change it but normally you just see the name. So far, what Obama saw in his email program for the Reply address seems a non-issue. Does anyone expect he actually maintains his own Address Book? Desktop Macs with Apple Mail are quite similar to iPad's and their Mail. Notice the From: (Amazon.com) and To: (Pat's GMail) in the little blue bubbles at the top. That is all you ever see of the actual person you are addressing. To change the To/From entries or even just to see what the actual email address is, you have to click or tap the blue bubble. Then it will show you the actual destination email address and any other email addresses for that person stored in the Address Book. I don't see any smoking gun just yet on What Barry Knew About Hilly's Email Address And When He Knew It, despite his bonehead spokesman making it sound like the Boy President couldn't possibly have failed to notice he was emailing on a forbidden private server. Sorry to be such a killjoy.

Sorry to be such a killjoy. If Obola is using a wireless device for classified email or attachments that is a big no no.
