Using private email servers is quaint at this point, you may as well be using private carrier pigeons. These days all the smart malfeasants in office are using encrypted messaging apps with disappearing messages[1][2].
The wildest part is that in the case of the January 6 plotters, they were instructed to use Signal:
> In the declaration from the Department of Homeland Security, filed under penalty of perjury, DHS claims that following a data breach in December 2020, Wolf and Cuccinnelli were given temporary phones and instructed to use Signal to communicate in December 2020 and January 2021. DHS claims the agency retained the Signal messages, but given that one of Signal’s selling points is its “disappearing messages” feature, the accuracy of this claim may be questionable.
