HilllaryMail ... It's The Law, Stupid!

18 U.S. Code  2071 - Concealment, removal, or mutilation generally | US Law | LII / Legal Information Institute:

(a) Whoever willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates, or destroys, or attempts to do so, or, with intent to do so takes and carries away any record, proceeding, map, book, paper, document, or other thing, filed or deposited with any clerk or officer of any court of the United States, or in any public office, or with any judicial or public officer of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.
(b) Whoever, having the custody of any such record, proceeding, map, book, document, paper, or other thing, willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates, falsifies, or destroys the same, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both; and shall forfeit his office and be disqualified from holding any office under the United States. As used in this subsection, the term “office” does not include the office held by any person as a retired officer of the Armed Forces of the United States. 

(June 25, 1948, ch. 645, 62 Stat. 795; Pub. L. 101–510, div. A, title V,  552(a), Nov. 5, 1990, 104 Stat. 1566; Pub. L. 103–322, title XXXIII,  330016(1)(I), Sept. 13, 1994, 108 Stat. 2147.)

Question: Does this apply only to documents delivered via the U.S. Mail?
Does EMAIL carry the same penalty?

Or does Hilary, in her office of Secretary of State, qualify under the definition " ... in any public office, or with any judicial or public officer of the United States...."?

One cannot help but wonder if this Federal Code would apply to a candidate for the office of (or sitting) POTUS.

Just asking.  Nothing to see here ... Move Along!
