DOJ to Senate: Just One Email to Rove

DOJ Responds to Subpoena: "The Department searched the email accounts of sixteen Justice Department officials over the period of November 1, 2004 through May 2, 2007. All they found, according to the letter from Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General Richard Hertling, was a single email sent on February 28, 2007 forwarding a copy of McClatchy's bombshell story on U.S. Attorney for New Mexico David Iglesias."

First off, what kind of title is "Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General"?

The search "terms were: Rove, Karl, kr, gwb43.com, georgewbush.com, and
rnchq.org. Both the "from" and "to" fields were searched in current and archived e-mail
accounts. The "to" field captured "cc's." So did people bcc Rove? Or did he use an alias? Maybe "rovebunny43"? Maybe they just communicated by SMS or phone? It will be interesting to hear Goodling's testimony next Wednesday.
