I wrote this on a comment to this question. But I feel it deserves it's own investigation.
Here are all of John Podesta's e-mails from 2007.
A couple of interesting facts:
-
The record begins on May 4th, 2007. This is the oldest e-mail on record in the Podesta WikiLeaks. Either Wikileaks are holding on to prior e-mails for further analysis or... John Podesta created a new e-mail on May 4th, 2007.
-
A lot of the first e-mails on record are of "undelivered e-mails", which is common when you create a new e-mail address, especially back in 2007.
There is something here.
Note that the oldest Podesta e-mail in the WikiLeaks record was sent on May 4th, 2007 to Herbert 'Herb' Sandler of the Sandler Foundation.
Herb Sandler has become a relevant person of interest in this investigation, as is the Sandler Foundation. This interest reports to an e-mail chain titled Martha's Vineyard.

Has been noted before.
A more likely theory is he wiped the server (and destroyed the media) in that time frame, and emails started working again once the new service was brought up.

It's a gmail. You really think he could get to a gmail server? Since Eric Schmidt was so high up in the Clinton campaign, maybe, I guess, but NSA would still have all the emails. Let's not forget either than WikiLeaks may be holding back some things or whoever leaked to WikiLeaks didn't want certain things to get out until a different administration could take over and replace the DoJ and avoid Obama pardons. Lots of possible explanations.
