Mr. Halperin, let's put that to the test. Here are a few questions I have. If these are answered in an acceptable fashion, then I will consider it good enough.

1. Why did you do this?
2. Why did you ignore the state department manual which stated that "sensitive but unclassified information" should not be transmitted through personal e-mail accounts?
3. Do you consider emails sent to or from you in the course of your duties as Secretary of State to be your property, or the property of the United States government?
4. Of the emails turned over so far, why did you have them delivered in printed form, with no metadata and headers?
5. When will you be turning over all of the emails in their original, electronic form including all metadata and the full internet headers?
6. Given that the law requires all emails regarding "the formulation and execution of basic policies and decisions and the taking of necessary actions; records that document important meetings; records that facilitate action by agency officials and their successors in office," why had you not turned these over until you had been requested?
7. What were the complete technical specifications of every part of the email system involved with clintonemail.com? Please include any filtering service (such as MXLogic), any software used, and what hardware was used.
8. Was there automatic, tamper-proof archiving? If not, why?
9. Who chose the specific ISP to use, and what information was used to make that choice?
10. When will you be turning over any and all hardware for forensic analysis?
11. If you have nothing to hide, why are you trying to control what to turnover and what you get to hold on to? Should that not be done by someone completely independent of you?
12. Were there emails regarding the Clinton Foundation sent or received through any of your personal accounts? If so, will you provide those to an independent auditor who can look for potential conflicts of interest that you may have a reason to want withheld?
13. Who was involved in maintaining this system? What security testing was performed? What was the backup schedule? Where are the backups? Which software patches were applied, and when?
14. If there was nothing sensitive nor classified on these emails, why all the redactions when they are being released?

On a few of these, only a few answers are acceptable. For example, all of the "when will" questions need to be answered "within a few days at the latest."
