President Barack Obama exchanged e-mails with Hillary Clinton on her personal address while she was secretary of state, but he didn’t know any details about how it had been set up, White House press secretary Josh Earnest said.

“The president, as I think many people expected, did over the course of his first several years in office trade e-mails with his secretary of state,” Earnest said on Monday. “I would not describe the number of e-mails as large, but they did have the occasion to e-mail each other.”
