I never understood what the terribly evil thing about private emails was in the first place.

They have several rules for using them.  They are allowed but you must follow said rules.

1. No classified info.
2. Forward ALL email to your official government account every 20 days.
3. Follow mandated security protocols.

Plus many more.

They want them to use official government servers for security and oversight. Every official email is supposed to be available for certain oversight committees to monitor and preserve.

Trump's advisors were sporadically using private email servers or public solutions (Gmail) for official business and not forarding them to their official government servers.  The content (if classified or not) and the security protocols of these servers (Gmail aside) are not yet known but given the controversy of the past 4 years, it's shocking they would even consider not using the government provided servers.

Thanks for filling me in. That shed some light.
