NSA or CIA spying on Americans in the USA is illegal, so they really shouldn’t have access to the official emails.

Government emails are supposed to be retained by the National Archives and Records Administration, not by an intelligence agency.

Agreed. I worded that poorly. That is why I am saying the intelligence agencies won't have it. They would use policy to get the data, which ultimately translates into a court order. Failure to comply with the order would alert investigators to a bigger problem.
