Isn't the fact that info may be classified retroactively another reason for using government servers rather than unsecured private ones? You are still guilty of exposing that classified material on your private server even if it was not classified at the time of interception.
And should someone's opinion on the degree of sensitivity of info reduce the culpability of one who has failed to protect it.
And things being "talked about" in the NY Times is not an impressive or convincing reference.
You spoke a lot of weasel words in your little paragraph.
