17. Oh FSM, if this is over Word PSTs...

... no wonder it's going to hell.

I've blown PSTs and been glad I had been archiving my backups and set Outlook to leave my messages on the server, but didn't the State Department have better backups of emails that went through state.gov addies?

And what about PSTs from people who should have sent him emails?

All I can say is that I'm glad the State Department has addressed some of the problems, and I hope this investigation does start making IT security more of a priority for federal agencies.
