April 13-15, 2007 -- WMR is going to press in an early edition to bring light to the matter of the e-mails between White House and Justice Department concerning the firings and possible attempted firings of US Attorneys for political purposes. The e-mails were sent on e-mail accounts run by the Republican National Committee. The RNC is claiming that many, if not all, of the e-mails subpoenaed by the Congress may have been deleted.

The RNC's web site (RNC.ORG) is hosted by SMARTECHCORP.NET. Relevant whois data is:

Registrant Name: Republican National Committee

All relevant e-mails sent to and from the RNC should be held by Smartechcorp or whoever stores their backup media, possibly Iron Mountain, Pennsylvania. Congress should subpoena these backups before they are tampered with.

As for GEORGEWBUSH.COM, the same website provider, Smartechcorp, was used:

Congress should likewise subpoena Smartechcorp and/or its backup for all relevant e-mails to and from the Bush-Cheney 04 Campaign headquarters in Arlington, Virginia.

April 13-15, 2007 -- More on E-mailgate. Once Congressional investigators, with subpoenas in hand secure, the servers located at all the elements involved with White House e-mails, including Smartechcorp, the process of un-deleting files can begin. The files are marked for deletion but are not removed until the space is required for a new file, which then overwrites the old information. The sooner the devices are impounded the more information will be retrieved (i.e., a race against writing to the disk). Also the e-mails are stored locally on the recipient's computer. These can be scrutinized with the same un-delete method. If it's a UNIX (the most likely, by far) system then there will be a set of user histories which will identify all user activity which can incriminate anyone tampering with the data. That will be a handy record for future indictments for obstruction of justice. [Thanks to WP in Florida for the aforementioned].

And if the hard drives were reformatted? That's a bit more than just negligence.

Software exists to recover info after a reformat.

Anyone wonder whether the NSA has any of these emails?

I didn't know that. How does it work?

They have everyone else's, why not?

I don't *think* it's so much "software" that exists. It might be more like special hardware.

Current hard drives are funny things. In the digital age, the tiniest bit of information is either a 1 or a 0, and combinations of 1's and 0's make up larger numbers and characters.

I understand the HD data to be like this:

We're used to each of these 1 or 0 bits in digital medium, like a light switch, being 100% in the on position or 100% in the off position but when you get down to the disks and how they work, it's not quite like that. The first time a bit is set to 1, it's like a magnetic charge is set but the resulting charge might only be 90% of it's capacity. If you set it to 1 again, it's still considered a 1 but the charge might be 92%. Subsequent charges increase the strength of the charge by smaller amounts but if anything over, say, 70% strength is considered a one, then as far as the computer is concerned nothing has changed -- 90, 92,93 percent it doesn't matter. Anything over 70 is a "1".

In reformating a HD a single time, the charge might be reduced to say, 10% where a one existed and maybe 6% where a zero existed. Since anything under 70% (or whatever -- I'm just picking numbers out of the air) is a zero, the computer considers them all zeros. So for formating purposes, 10% or 8 or 6% are all "0".

BUT...

Take that same HD and hook it up to a sensitive reader, and it could spit out the actual strengths of each charge or bit, and infer from them whether they were likely a 1 or a zero prior to the last format. By doing that, it's possible to glean info from a formated drive. Would it be a perfect recovery of everything? Probably not but maybe 90% of the data would be accurate.

There is a linux command, I don't remember the name but it might be "shread" which when used to remove a file, overwrites the hd space quite thoroughly to prevent the possibility of this kind hacking.

On Windoz vs Linux, Linux is constantly working with an HD and it is easier to "undelete" a file from Windows than linux. I don't even know any command to do it in linux, while I had a 3rd party undelete program for the old MS DOS machines. I think it's less likely that data can be salvaged from a linux system than a windows system, but I think there is software that can be run on a windows system to overwrite data that's deleted automatically.

Re: linux history files, they exist for normal console tinkering where commands are typed at a prompt, but I'm not familiar with any for normal email transmitting and receiving outside of normal log files. But it's always possible something like that could be set up.
